Physician Negligence
A physician's failure to properly diagnose and monitor a patient's medical condition is the most common medical malpractice question we encounter. With regard to the legal investigation, it is vital that the investigating attorney has all medical records regardless of whether the records are related to the specific treatment in question. Full medical disclosure allows an expert physician to provide an objective opinion. This opinion will help our medical malpractice lawyers evaluate how the alleged negligence has affected the progression of disease or other medical condition.
For any medical negligence case to be actionable, the plaintiff patient must prove that the doctor, nurse or technician violated the medical standard of care. Although the patient may suffer ill effects from medical treatment, this alone does not necessarily mean that a health care professional committed medical negligence. Known risks are present in almost every medical procedure. At Horn Law in Independence, near Kansas City, Missouri, our experienced medical malpractice lawyers can evaluate the treatment provided to a patient against the medical standard of care to determine if negligence has occurred.
