When you go to a doctor for treatment or diagnosis, the last thing on your mind is whether the doctor will perform up to the accepted standard of medical care. Unfortunately for many patients, this is an issue they will have to deal with. Medical complications resulting from medical negligence is becoming all too common. Surgical errors, failure to diagnose a medical condition, and treating without informed consent are some of the common mistakes made by medical professionals that can leave unsuspecting patients seriously harmed.
However, there is a way for you to hold your medical professional accountable for the mistakes they make: file a medical malpractice suit against them. Nurses, doctors, physician assistants, and other staff members can be named in the suit. Even the hospital can be named in the suit for negligent supervision and vicarious liability.
