Doctor Malpractice New York
The failure of your doctor to diagnose an illness correctly can constitute medical malpractice in the state of New York if the misdiagnosis leads to negative health consequences. When a doctor fails to take the time or to pay close attention to the correct diagnosis of your illness, there can be dire consequences. If your doctor tries to save managed care dollars by trying to diagnose your condition over the telephone, you may suffer as a result.
The purpose of the medical malpractice statutes is to hold doctors accountable to professional standards of care for their communities throughout New York and other states. This accountability, in turn, helps keep you and other medical patients safe. In order to make the system work as it should, it is absolutely essential for any patient to seek legal redress when his doctor commits malpractice.
