Dallas Medical Malpractice Lawyer

We go to the doctor for healing, not harm. When a physician, nurse, anesthesiologist, or other healthcare professional fails to provide the standard level of care or makes an injurious mistake during a medical procedure, the patient suffers. Medical malpractice is a serious issue and affects thousands of people in Texas every year. It doesn’t just involve a mistake on the operating table. A misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose is also a form of malpractice, one that can have fatal consequences. Our Dallas, TX medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand what happened to you and your rights under Texas law. Please contact Kelso Law today to learn more.

Medical Malpractice Lawyer Dallas, TX

Medical malpractice is scary. Victims who are already injured or ill leave the doctor in worse shape than they arrived. If you suffered a medical error, anything from a botched procedure to improperly administered anesthesia or even an operation performed on the wrong part of the body, you may require extensive medical treatment to repair that damage, and that’s not even considering the care you need for your initial (possibly untreated) complaint! Going back to a doctor after you’ve been harmed can feel scary; if you’re nervous or developed a phobia, you’re not alone. Malpractice scars are more than just physical.

Medical malpractice also involves misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose. Misdiagnosis means that you, the patient, weren’t properly diagnosed with your true condition. You may suffer painful and invasive medical procedures for a condition that you don’t even have simply because the doctor wasn’t thorough in their evaluation of you. Or, you may be a victim of failure to diagnose. In these cases, someone isn’t diagnosed with a certain condition, missing the opportunity for curative early intervention care. For example, you went to the doctor feeling exhausted and weak. They say you have the flu. Months later, another doctor diagnoses you with cancer, which the first doctor should have caught. Now, you may have missed the opportunity for better treatment options.

In these cases, the patient is eligible for compensation to cover all the associated medical care costs, including those from the initial treatment and any subsequent care required to address the malpractice injuries. You’re also entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering and the emotional trauma you experienced. Our attorneys hold all parties accountable, including the doctor responsible and the hospital or care facility you were treated in. We’re determined to help you get justice and the money you need to heal and move forward.
