When diagnosed in a timely manner, it is entirely possible to beat cancer. However, the longer cancer goes undiagnosed, the greater the chance that it will be harder or impossible to beat. As a skilled Marietta cancer misdiagnosis attorney, I understand the pain and confusion patients and their family members experience due to a delayed cancer diagnosis.
With more than 30 years of experience, I have handled many different types of medical malpractice claims. I have the resources, dedication and desire to protect your rights as an injured person.
Cancer Misdiagnosis Can Be Fatal
Doctors are required to follow the standard of care. Failure to do so can result in delayed cancer diagnosis and misdiagnosis. This can waste precious time — time when the patient could have been in treatment. As a skilled Atlanta failure to diagnose cervical cancer lawyer, I cannot turn back time to correct a doctor's mistake. I can, however, make sure negligent people are held accountable for their actions and your loved one or family is compensated for the loss.
My medical malpractice law firm represents clients who have received a delayed or incorrect diagnoses of any type of cancer, including:
- Cervical cancer
- Lung cancer
- Breast cancer
- Skin cancer
- Uterine cancer
I have substantial understanding of the ways in which cancer is misdiagnosed or not diagnosed. Often, these errors occur in labs. For example, a pathologist can mistake one type of cancer for another. Skin cancer may appear as breast cancer. Precursors to cancer can be disregarded. Pap smears can show up as negative when the patient actually has cancer.
These cases require significant knowledge of Georgia's medical malpractice laws. They also require the assistance of an attorney who can use medical experts to bolster a client's claim. My law firm possesses the resources needed to secure compensation for you and your family.
