In the field of medicine, the clock never stops ticking. Each moment counts, especially when it comes to diagnosing a medical condition. Unfortunately, cases of failure to diagnose or a delay in diagnosis are far too common and can lead to devastating outcomes. At MANEY | GORDON Trial Lawyers, we understand the gravity of these medical mistakes, and we're committed to fighting for justice for you.
Yes, absolutely. Medical professionals owe a duty of care to their patients. A failure to diagnose or a delay in diagnosis could be considered a breach of this duty. If you or a loved one has suffered due to such negligence, you have every right to seek legal redress. These kinds of failure to diagnose lawsuits can help you recover the compensation you deserve for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and more.
Imagine you go to a doctor complaining of persistent headaches only to be sent home with over-the-counter medication.

The delay in diagnosis has now significantly affected your prognosis and treatment options.
