Medical Misdiagnosis is a serious risk every time you go to the hospital.
There are many ways that a medical misdiagnosis can present itself. Whether a doctor is at fault, or hospital staff, a misdiagnosis of a serious illness can have very extreme and harmful effects. The National Patient Safety Foundation cites that 42% of medical patients feel they have had experienced a medical error or missed diagnosis.

 


 

Whenever you go to a Cleveland medical professional for consultation or treatment, it is expected that the doctor, nurse, or physician will treat you with the top quality the medical profession demands. Medical Malpractice is a doctor's failure to exercise the degree of care and skill that a physician, surgeon, or any other medical professional would use under routine circumstances.
