We trust our doctors, nurses and other health care professionals to take their jobs seriously and provide us with the highest quality of medical care so we can stay (or get) healthy. Unfortunately, however, health care professionals may not always provide us with the care we need, as they may be overwork, improperly trained or otherwise unable (or willing) to ensure that we are getting the type and quality of care we need.
What can be just as frustrating as these facts is that it’s not always easy to tell when you may have been the victim of malpractice medical mistakes and, as a result, when you may be entitle to compensation from negligent health care professionals (and possibly the facilities that employ them).
Although some medical conditions are associate with very distinct and obvious symptoms, in many cases, it takes many medical tests to properly diagnose a condition. When doctors or other health care professionals only perform a single (or, worse yet, no) test on you and then definitively diagnose you with a specific condition, be skeptical. This is one clear-cut victim of malpractice because it is rarely the case that one test can be use to diagnose patients’ conditions.
Be sure to look for our forthcoming second and third parts of this blog for three more signs of malpractice that all patients should be familiar with.
