Failure to Diagnose & Missed Diagnosis
Injured Due to Medical Malpractice? Call (410) 983-3535!
A common form of medical negligence or medical malpractice is the failure to diagnose a medical condition, or missed diagnosis, which can directly result in serious injury to the patient. Failure to diagnose can also include a delay in the diagnosis of a condition such as cancer or a misdiagnosis of a condition with similar symptoms. A mistake or delay in diagnosing any medical conditions can allow the disease to progress, putting a patient’s health at risk.
The following are conditions and diseases that can be deadly if misdiagnosed:
- Cancer
- Appendicitis
- Heart attack or stroke
- Dangerous infections
- Pneumonia
There are countless other conditions that can cause serious health complications and medical issues if left undiagnosed and untreated. If you or a loved one has suffered injuries due to a doctor or medical professional’s negligence, you need legal counsel.
