What are the signs of medical malpractice?

 

A: Sometimes, it is easy to tell that you are the victim of medical malpractice.  A procedure is done on the wrong side of the body, a sponge is left in during surgery, or a prescription is mixed up causing drastic side effects.  Other times, medical malpractice is not so easy to recognize.

You may be a victim of medical malpractice if:

  1. You don't get better with treatment or you get worse.
  2. Your symptoms don't match the diagnosis.
  3. Your diagnosis is based only on a lab test.
  4. Your doctor dismisses your opinion.
  5. Your diagnosis involves a test you never received.
  6. You are having unusual side effects to a medication.
  7. A medical treatment causes injury.
