Sometimes the worst ER errors occur when you get no help at all. It is the job of ER physicians to recognize when sick patients need to see a specialist. The failure to get a consultation could easily lead to an undiagnosed condition that only gets worse. If you seek medical aid only to be told that you are fine, you will never get the help you deserve.
We protect individuals who have sought medical care at an ER, only to suffer from the following mistakes:
Certain medical problems require the attention of a specialist. ER doctors cannot admit patients into the hospital, so it is their job to call an attending physician. Failure to get the appropriate medical attention is doctor malpractice, and these types of ER errors can lead to major medical problems.
We once had a client who went to the hospital and the radiologist noticed that he had cancer, but then he was released without ever being informed of his condition. Three and a half years later, he went back to the ER. They remembered to tell him the second time, but the first misdiagnosis had already cost him years of potential treatment.
