Patients have a legal right to assume that the level of care provided to them by a medical professional meets a certain standard. When this standard has not been met, victims are entitled to compensation for any resulting harm. If a physician or other medical staff member fails to provide a patient with the proper care, medical negligence has occurred.

However, this figure doesn’t include the thousands of other preventable deaths that occur in private clinics, doctors’ offices, and other medical facilities. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals are legally required to provide safe, competent treatment to their patients.

Our Atlanta, Georgia medical malpractice lawyers handle a full range of cases involving the failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis of serious medical conditions.
Cancer Misdiagnosis
When cancer diagnosis is delayed and the disease is allowed to progress, more drastic forms of treatment may be required, including higher dosages of radiation and chemotherapy. These invasive treatments result in added pain and expense for a patient already burdened with medical bills. Tragically, cancer misdiagnosis can also lead to wrongful death. Cancer misdiagnosis is often caused by a physician's:

If treatment is delayed due to misdiagnosis, however, the patient's chances for survival and his or her quality of life will be affected. Types of cancer that respond well to early diagnosis and treatment include breast, lung, prostate, colon, ovarian, cervical, testicular, and kidney cancer.
