What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider—whether a doctor, nurse, hospital, or other medical professional—fails to meet the standard of care, resulting in harm to the patient. Common examples include:

Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis
Failing to identify a medical condition in time, leading to worsened outcomes.

Surgical Errors
Mistakes during surgery, such as wrong-site surgeries, leaving instruments inside the body, or anesthesia errors.

Birth Injuries
Negligence during labor and delivery that causes injuries to the mother or child, such as cerebral palsy or Erb’s palsy.

Medication Errors
Prescribing the wrong medication or incorrect dosages.

Nursing Home Neglect
Failing to provide adequate care in elder facilities, leading to injuries or death.

Medical malpractice cases are legally and medically complex, requiring the experience of skilled attorneys to establish negligence and hold the responsible parties accountable.
