In any emergency situation, an appropriate medical evaluation must be performed. Failure to do so results in poor patient care and liability on the part of the medical provider, as well as the employer (the hospital).
We have a strong track record of helping our clients receive full financial compensation when emergency room doctors fail to diagnose, misdiagnose or mistreat a serious or life-threatening medical condition.
Emergency room errors that may constitute malpractice include:
- Failure to admit a patient in critical need of care
- Failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis of heart attack, stroke, appendicitis, viral or bacterial meningitis, spinal cord compression or bowel obstruction
- Failure to respond and treat a patient promptly
- Premature discharge of a patient from the emergency room
- Failure to call in appropriate medical or surgical consults to treat a patient
- Failure to order necessary and appropriate diagnostic tests, such as EKGs, CT scans, X-rays or blood work
