Dallas-Fort Worth Medical Malpractice Attorneys
When we entrust our health and well-being to qualified health care professionals, we rightfully expect that they will exercise the proper care and follow established procedures to protect us from further harm. We expect to receive help to get better — not to suffer greater complications as a result of preventable medical mistakes.
Schedule a consultation with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer at the law offices of Frenkel & Frenkel. Talk to one of our attorneys to determine whether you have a case when a doctor or nurse made a mistake.
Following are examples of cases we have received:
- An emergency room (ER) doctor failed to properly diagnose a dangerous condition such as meningitis, resulting in harm to the patient that could have been prevented with proper care.
- A surgeon operated on the wrong body part: should have had reconstruction of right knee and the left knee was operated upon.
- A nurse or doctor administered the wrong medication or an erroneously large dosage that harmed or killed the patient.
- An OB-GYN failed to take standard precautions during prenatal care, labor, delivery or neonatal care, resulting in lasting harm to a baby such as cerebral palsy.
- A hospital employee made a grievous error such as delivering or administering the wrong substance needed during surgery or medical treatment.
Needless to say, not every worsening of symptoms is a doctor's fault. And even when a doctor did make a mistake, the results may not be severe enough to warrant the expense of a medical malpractice investigation. A frank discussion with an experienced lawyer is a wise starting point when you suspect medical malpractice. We have a medical doctor (who is also a lawyer) on staff to efficiently give us a gateway analysis as to the feasibility of a prospective medical malpractice case.
