When you seek medical treatment because of an accident or concerns about health irregularities, you expect that, at a minimum, your condition won’t get worse because of carelessness or negligence on the part of a medical professional. Unfortunately, it happens far too often. In the haste to push a number of patients through the system, doctors often neglect to take basic, accepted measures to properly diagnose an illness or injury. This can happen in a number of different ways:
- A doctor may fail to order reasonable tests
- A physician may incorrectly read or interpret test results
- Charts may get mixed up or misplaced
- A doctor may fail to anticipate related conditions
