Introduction. Have you or a loved one suffered loss, harm, pain and suffering, or untimely death as a result of misdiagnosis, surgical errors, or other medical mistakes? We can help. The attorneys at Robert B. Sykes & Associates have extensive trial experience and have over 30 years of experience helping victims of this type of medical malpractice.
Misdiagnosis. In some cases, even missing the proper diagnosis by a day or two may mean the difference between a full recovery and irrevocable misery. Misdiagnosis can include:
certain types of cancer,
meningitis
strokes,
blood clots,
tumors, or
aneurism
many others
A misdiagnosis of any of the above may cause the patient to lose the crucial window of opportunity during which treatment can bring about a good medical outcome, and may result in serious consequences, including death.
Surgical Errors. Surgical injury may be the result of a poorly trained surgeon or inattentive surgeon. Even simple surgery can end in serious injury or death if a medical professional is careless, impatient, or inadequately prepared. We have represented clients in lawsuits involving many surgical errors, including:
Scalpel slips
Surgical instruments, gauze, or other items not removed
Wrong surgery
Anesthesia overdose
Removing the improper limb or breast
Performing unnecessary surgery
Cosmetic surgery errors
Other surgery errors
We are committed to ensuring that doctors and other health care providers are held accountable for serious surgical errors, and to getting you the outcome you deserve.
