Medical malpractice occurs when healthcare providers deviate from the accepted standard of care, resulting in patient injury or death. At the Law Offices of J. Kenneth Kruvant, we recognize the devastating impact of medical negligence and are dedicated to protecting patient rights throughout all of Maryland, West Virginia, and Washington D.C.
Recognizing Medical Malpractice and Patient Rights
Healthcare professionals have a duty to provide competent and diligent care. When they fail to meet this standard, patients may suffer from misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, or other forms of negligence. Understanding your rights in these situations is critical. Often, patients place unwavering trust in their doctors and medical staff, and when that trust is violated, the consequences can be life-altering. It’s crucial to recognize that medical malpractice isn’t always immediately apparent; sometimes, the effects manifest over time, making it essential to seek legal counsel if you suspect negligence.
Common Forms of Medical Negligence
- Misdiagnosis
- Surgical Errors
- Medication Mistakes
- Birth Injuries
- Failure to Treat
- Anesthesia Errors
