Charleston Misdiagnosis Lawyers
Patients Who Suffer May Be Entitled to Fair Financial Compensation
When a medical condition goes undiagnosed or is diagnosed incorrectly, a patient can suffer immensely from the consequences. These instances occur all too often, and the physician or medical staff in charge must be held accountable for any negligence. If you have been harmed due to a doctor’s misdiagnosis, you may have a case of medical malpractice and may be entitled to receive financial compensation.

Making a Medical Malpractice Claim for misdiagnosis
Patients who have suffered due to misdiagnosis may require additional medical treatment and even unnecessary surgeries, which adds not only time but more expense to the overall treatment. When we visit doctors, we expect them to perform to a particular set of standards, and we trust their expertise. However, when they fail to provide this very minimum, then that is when a mistake occurs.
Here are some of the consequences that can occur due to misdiagnosis:
- The patient’s medical condition evolves into a more serious or life-threatening condition.
- The patient requires surgery, treatment, or more drastic procedure.
- An infectious disease is undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, and others contract it.
- The patient receives the incorrect medication, an overdose, or too little dosage of the medication.
- A terminal illness goes undetected and the patient’s health declines, resulting in irreparable damage or even death.
- The disease has progressed to a stage where there are no more treatment options available.
