Medical malpractice occurs when a medical professional, facility or hospital fails to provide adequate treatment to a patient that results in personal injury or wrongful death. A doctor, nurse, medical technician, psychiatrist, dentist, hospital, clinic, or other health care provider can be held accountable. While a medical professional can not guarantee the cure of or successful outcome from treatment, they must provide care that meets the standard of good medical practice in that specialty. Has your doctor neglected to provide you with this standard of care? Contact our experienced New York attorneys today.

A recent study by Healthgrades found that a significant number of deaths in hospitals were due to preventable medical errors. In a 2006 study by the National Academy of Science, researchers found that one of the most common preventable medical errors is medication errors, which harm 1.5 million people each year. However, there are many different types of Medical Malpractice cases that can also include: improper diagnosis, failure to diagnose, medication errors, surgical errors, unsanitary medical instruments, failure to advise of a diagnosis, lack of informed consent, or improperly prescribing a drug.
