CINCINNATI MEDICAL MISDIAGNOSIS LAWYERS

Medical treatment of disease is most effective in the early stages of development. That’s why it’s so critical that your diagnosis be swift and treatment immediate. A misdiagnosis, including delayed care for serious disorders can lead to personal injury, permanent disabilitiy, or even death.

When a medical professional misses the signs and symptoms of cancer, heart problems or other silent killers, patients lose the opportunity to regain their health through prompt treatment. At the Cincinnati law firm of O’Connor Acciani & Levy Co., LPA we do our best to uncover the facts and represent victims of medical malpractice.

People place enormous trust in their healthcare providers and deserve to know if they have been misdiagnosed. Often this information is concealed to protect physicians and their support staff from lawsuit.

Misdiagnosis data is anecdotal and hard to analyze, but in a study of patient safety, the company HealthGrades discovered that ”Failure to Rescue” occurred in over 150 out of 1000 patients who had been hospitalized. In emergency room situations, 20% to 40% of patients were misdiagnosed.

Examples of medical conditions that are likely to be missed or misdiagnosed include heart problems, strokes, diabetes, breast and lung cancers, meningitis and leukemia.

If your doctor’s inability to correctly diagnose your condition caused treatment to be delayed and this delay significantly reduced your recovery chances, you need to talk to a medical malpractice attorney.
