Understanding Medical Malpractice in Florida

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in harm to a patient. This can happen in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, or even during routine office visits. Common examples include:

  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: Failure to diagnose or an incorrect diagnosis that leads to improper treatment or delayed care.
  • Surgical errors: Mistakes made during surgery, such as operating on the wrong site or leaving surgical instruments inside the body.
  • Medication errors: Prescribing the wrong medication or incorrect dosages.
  • Birth injuries: Harm caused to a newborn or mother during childbirth due to negligence.
  • Failure to obtain informed consent: Performing a procedure without properly informing the patient of risks and alternatives.

Though not a comprehensive list, each of these scenarios can have devastating consequences, leaving victims with long-term physical, emotional, and financial burdens. As your Florida medical malpractice attorney, MANEY | GORDON Trial Lawyers has the experience and resources to investigate these claims thoroughly and hold negligent parties accountable.
