Are you a victim?

There are several questions you can ask yourself to determine if you are a victim of medical malpractice.

Have you or a family member suffered a severe or permanent injury under the care of a doctor, nurse, or other health care provider?
Did your doctor fail to disclose important information concerning you, your medical conditions, or risks involved with your injury?
Did you suffer an injury because treatment was delayed when your insurance company questioned the suitability of a procedure, test, or diagnosis that may have helped you?
Have you been injured because a doctor failed to perform proper tests or make diagnoses in a timely manner?
Were you or your baby injured during childbirth?
Have you been injured by a medicine prescribed to you?
Did equipment used during surgery cause you injury because it was faulty, broken, or mishandled?
Did your condition worsen because your doctor failed to refer you to an appropriate specialist?
Have you suffered injury, or did your condition worsen because your doctor failed to follow up in a timely manner on an abnormal test result?
Did your condition worsen or were you hurt by being discharged early from medical care?
