Medical Malpractice Injuries in South Texas

Doctors, nurses, hospitals and all medical facilities and personnel have a duty to provide the highest degree of care possible for their patients.  People trust and respect their treating doctors and nurses and expect they will receive the level of care that will keep them healthy and recovering from any illness or injury.  When medical personnel fail to take the proper care expected of them, they can be held liable for any medical malpractice that may occur.

Medical malpractice can occur for a variety of reason, the most common being:

• Overworked staff making mistakes
• Untrained staff
• Administering incorrect medication
• Surgical errors
• Failing to take proper action
• Incorrectly performing a medical procedure
• Lack of proper hygiene
• Misdiagnosis
• Lack of maintenance or care of equipment

When someone is injured due to medical malpractice, they may not always be aware that they did in fact have medical care that was negligent.  If you have had a recent medical procedure which left you sicker or injured in some way, consult with our medical malpractice attorneys at the Malaise Law Firm to discuss your situation.  Our firm can determine whether there is merit to your case and investigate it further as needed.

Injuries suffered by those who have been victims of medical malpractice can include the following:

• Birth injuries
• Removal of an incorrect body part
• Brain damage
• Infections
• Severe drug reactions
• Overexposure to X-rays

When someone is injured in such a case, they may be required to have additional medical treatment to repair the injury or damage caused by the malpractice.  This could lead to subsequent surgeries, added expense and physical and emotional trauma.  All of these things must be taken into consideration when negotiating a settlement for your compensation.
