When a physician or other health care provider, such as a nurse, fails to provide appropriate medical care that results in injury to a patient a medical malpractice case may exist. Such injured patients may recover money damages for their pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses and other related expenses. It is important to recognize that good results are not guaranteed in medical care. In order to have a successful medical malpractice claim a patient must prove that a health care provider failed to provide appropriate medical care and that this failure to provide appropriate care contributed to the patient’s injuries.
Errors in medical care that result in malpractice cases include but are not limited to the failure to properly diagnose a condition, improper treatment and surgical errors. Proving medical errors/negligence requires special knowledge and experience. In almost every instance a medical malpractice case requires the retention of a doctor as an expert to review the medical records and if necessary serve as an expert witness at trial for the patient.
