Misdiagnosis And Failure To Treat

Each day, doctors see dozens of patients, most generally complaining of common pain or illness. With the high volume of cases they see, it is easy for doctors and physicians to dismiss cases or quickly diagnose with the most probable condition to meet the symptoms described. While this may work out in many cases requiring minimal investigation and treatment, inattention can quickly cause serious problems.

Doctors who fail to adequately investigate symptoms, failing to order the correct tests, can easily misdiagnose or fail to diagnose serious illness, eating up valuable time the patient had to fight the condition. These oversights can cause serious declines in health, or even death.

Misdiagnosis Of Cancer And Other Serious Conditions

The Shanks Law Firm is equipped with the medical knowledge and acumen required to effectively handle these cases. We are trained to identify instances where doctors and staff should have recognized and tested critical signs and symptoms. These oversights can include:

  • Failing to perform necessary tests and lab work
  • Failing to classify or misclassifying malignant masses or tumors
  • Misinterpreting scans, test results and lab work
  • Failing to pay attention to complaints of pain or potential symptoms
  • Miscommunication between doctors, nurses and administrative staff
  • Failing to follow up on symptoms or signs in a timely manner

We understand the strain you and your family are under as you face a serious recovery process. We come alongside clients to carry the legal load, easing that stress during this time. The compensation our team fights to recover helps to cover costly medical and treatment bills.
