What is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice, often called medical negligence, is the term used to describe a wrong committed by a doctor or other medical professional who caused them bodily harm. Medical negligence is much more than the physician or other health care provider making a simple mistake. Medical malpractice occurs when a health care provider improperly treats a patient or performs treatment in a negligent manner. Many times, a physician or hospital fails to use appropriate treatment methods or neglects the patient. The results of this inadequate and inappropriate care can cause significant permanent injuries and even death.
Common Examples of Medical Malpractice
Injuries commonly resulting from medical malpractice include the following:
- Wrongful Death
- Misdiagnosed cancer (lung cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer)
- Birth Injuries such as cerebral palsy and shoulder dystocia
- Misread x-rays and pap smears
- Emergency room error
- Medication error
- Surgical error
- Anesthesia error
The Importance of Acting Quickly
We can help you if you believe that you or a family member were the victim of medical malpractice in Michigan.
