Effectively Helping Victims Of Negligent Medical Providers

Medical diagnosis is a complex skill. It may be difficult to make a proper diagnosis at an initial visit and, depending upon the complexity of the case and how much is known about the condition, it can take some time for a doctor to make an accurate diagnosis. However, if you suffered a worsening of your medical condition, or a family member died at the hands of a medical professional who negligently failed to or improperly diagnosed a medical condition, the Indianapolis medical malpractice lawyers at Jacobs Law LLC, can help you pursue a malpractice claim.

Experience And Resources To Build A Strong Case

We have been helping victims of medical malpractice obtain financial settlements for over 25 years. We can put this experience and skill to work for you if your situation involves:

• A pathologist, radiologist or another medical professional misreading a lab or test result, MRI or mammogram
• A doctor failing to order necessary laboratory tests, blood work or biopsy
• Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose breast cancer, ovarian cancer, brain cancer or meningitis
• Emergency room errors, such as failing to diagnose and treat a stroke or a heart attack
• Failure to identify onset of labor or fetal distress, leading to birth injuries and brain damage from lack of oxygen

Just as unqualified practitioners may cause a medical misdiagnosis, navigating the legal aspects of your personal injury claim is best left to injury attorneys who deal with insurance companies every day.

Misdiagnosing Cancer

It used to be that if you were diagnosed with cancer, the cancer would, in all likelihood, lead to death. Although cancer is still a major cause of death throughout America and the world, treatments for the disease have become much more advanced. If your cancer is diagnosed in its early stages, you may well have a favorable prognosis. It is absolutely vital, however, that your cancer is diagnosed early on. When doctors miss signs of cancer, you will lose the time you need to battle your disease. At worst, this lost time can lead to death. At best, this lost time can require the use of far more invasive treatments. For example, if a doctor failed to diagnose breast cancer in a timely fashion, it could lead to a mastectomy. This radical surgery may have been unnecessary if the cancer was diagnosed properly when evaluated. If you or someone you love has been harmed by a doctor’s failure to diagnose cancer, you may have a medical malpractice claim.
