Diagnosis Errors

It is the responsibility of doctors, nurses, and emergency room staff to accurately and completely diagnosis the disease, injury, syndrome, infection, behavior, or other ailment from which you are suffering. Delays in or inaccuracies of diagnosis can be medical malpractice.

If you are a victim of diagnosis error, contact our Atlanta Georgia medical malpractice law firm for a free initial consultation.

Preventable diagnosis errors happen when doctors do not thoroughly identify and determine the nature and cause of a disease or injury through evaluation of the patient’s history, a meticulous examination, and review of laboratory data.

We can help you determine if the above factors were adequately considered before rendering a diagnosis and help you take action if they were not. A physician may also be at fault for failure to consult a specialist, misinterpretation of test results, misreading of images, and delays in diagnosis.

When a doctor fails to diagnose a condition such as cancer, diabetes, or other serious ailment during early opportunities, the disease, injury, or illness can reach advanced stages and threaten significant permanent damage or even death to the patient. These delays in diagnosis can be medical malpractice and our lawyers know what actions to take for you to seek compensation.
