Question:
Can I receive compensation if a doctor misdiagnosed my condition?
Answer: You may be wondering whether you have a claim for medical malpractice if the doctor misdiagnosed your condition. In truth, it can be the basis for a claim. The ultimate issue is, of course, whether or not that misdiagnosis has resulted in added harm. I had a case like this where a woman who was not diagnosed in time with breast cancer had advanced degeneration of her condition because of the failure to timely diagnose her condition.
In addition to the fact that you are going to have to deal with the disease that you currently have, the doctor’s failure can add to that and make it worse if not treated timely or treating another wrong condition has somehow added harm to the patient. It can be actionable, and we investigate those cases thoroughly. We have experts who we rely on to help us in prosecuting these claims for medical malpractice.
