Michigan Podiatrist Malpractice Cases

Our Michigan medical malpractice lawyers handle lawsuits against podiatrists. Podiatry treatment is often very effective in certain types of injuries and conditions to the feet, toes, and ankles. Many times, patients do not get adequately pain relief from more conventional methods of medicine and a podiatrist can be an excellent treatment option. In fact, many medical doctors refer their patients to podiatrists for treatment of the feet and ankles often because a podiatrist has more experience in treating these conditions than an orthopedic surgeon.

However, there are occasions when patients suffer injuries due to the medical errors and mistakes made by podiatrists. In other situations, the podiatrist may have failed to diagnose a serious underlying medical condition that needed to be referred to an appropriate medical specialist. In these situations, the injured patient may have a podiatrist malpractice lawsuit.

Common Causes of Michigan Podiatrist Malpractice

Common causes of podiatrist malpractice lawsuits include injuries caused by the podiatrist during the treatment include:

  • Bunion surgery
  • Heel spur surgery
  • Hammertoe surgery
  • Diabetic ulcers and foot sores
  • Failure to treat infections
  • Improper procedures
  • Lack of informed consent
  • Other foot and ankle surgeries

The injuries caused by negligent treatment of podiatrist can be significant. These include deformities of the foot, difficulty with walking and ambulation, the need for additional surgeries, disability, and pain. In cases involving foot infections and the failure to treat diabetic foot ulcers, the malpractice can result in an amputation of the foot or a below knee amputation.
