Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional deviates from the accepted standards of practice, leading to patient harm. This can encompass errors in diagnosis, treatment, aftercare or health management.
An incorrect diagnosis, or mistaken diagnosis, is what is commonly known as a misdiagnosis. The outcome from a misdiagnosis can range from minor injuries to severe and life-threatening injuries, and even death. A misdiagnosis can result in the wrong treatment, wrong drugs being prescribed or a treatment that worsens the patient’s condition.
Misdiagnoses occur when doctors fail to give patients their undivided attention creating a higher likelihood of potentially dangerous clinical signs being either ignored or misunderstood. Misdiagnoses can also occur because patients fail to disclose all of their symptoms. Many misdiagnoses affect the urgency with which laboratory testing is completed, potentially causing harmful effects for the patient. Misdiagnoses can also lead to the wrong drugs being prescribed, the wrong treatment, or a treatment that ends up further worsening the patient’s condition.
A delayed diagnosis is when a gap occurs between diagnosis and treatment, causing complications or increasing the severity of a patient’s condition. A delayed diagnosis is, technically, correct but does not occur in a timely manner and can have adverse effects on the patient’s health. One of the most common reasons for delayed diagnoses is physician failure to take a complete patient history. Some delayed diagnoses have proven dangerous, and even deadly, including delayed diagnoses of heart attacks, infections and cancer.
A failure to diagnose means that the actual illness has been left untreated, which can also cause severe injury or even death. Failing to diagnose a related, or unrelated, disease can lead to serious injury, as well.
Victims may suffer from prolonged illness, permanent disability, emotional trauma, or financial burdens due to additional medical expenses and loss of income.

In my 35 plus years of business experience, I have never met more knowledgeable, responsive professionals. My cases were settled in record time with extremely satisfactory results. All legal advise I received was spot on and very proactive. Could not be more happy w/ the services and advise received.
I am so impressed with Atty Terry Bailey. I needed a 2nd opinion on inverse condemnation case. He was knowledgeable, experienced and just as important, very human in dealing with my dilemma. He took the time to listen and understand the issues relating to my property damage caused by county negligence and never rushed me or interrupted me. He listened carefully and understood, it was very clear how experienced he is. I highly recommend Mr. Bailey.
Yes, they did a great job at handling the home insurance case. Knowledgeable, smart and diligent. Always on top of things. Great communication. But they were more than that. Great advisers to us as well. And not full of empty promises, but with real understanding of what is possible and what is not. Nice to have someone who does not over promise, just over delivers.
