Wrong-Site Surgery And Other ‘Never’ Events

Some medical mistakes are so egregious that they have been categorized as “never” events, meaning they should never happen in a medical setting. However, despite the medical community’s increased focus on preventing “never” events, they still occur at alarming rates.

Wrong-site surgery — or operating on the wrong part of the body — is one type of “never” event, and it shocks people to learn that wrong-site surgery happens dozens of times each week in the United States.

The list of surgical “never” events also includes:

• Wrong implant or prosthesis
• Leaving a towel, scissors or other foreign object inside the patient

Even if a surgical error is clearly due to medical malpractice, you can expect medical providers and their insurance companies to deny responsibility. Let us help you hold them responsible.

Why Having A Medical Malpractice Lawyer On Your Side Is Extremely Important

Not every law firm has the experience and professional resources to handle medical malpractice cases involving surgical errors. These are extremely complex cases, requiring extensive experience in medical malpractice claims, as well as extensive resources such as appropriate medical experts who can identify exactly what went wrong.

With us on your side, you can trust that a skilled and dedicated legal team is working on your behalf to ensure that you receive the appropriate medical care and financial compensation you need and deserve.
