Common Symptoms Can Easily Be Missed

Emergency rooms often operate to get people in and out of the hospital, without the proper care a situation warrants. Common emergency room errors include misdiagnosing the following illnesses:

  • Heart attack
  • Aortic dissection
  • Cancer
  • Clogged arteries
  • Serious viral or bacterial infections

Errors in the emergency room can lead to excessive tests or lab work. Your condition may also have worsened, causing serious permanent injury or illness, because of the emergency room error.

Greene Ketchum medical malpractice attorneys research your illness or injury. They file your claim, work with your medical insurance provider, and go after the hospital, doctor, or nurse that caused your harm in the emergency room. They work diligently on your case so you can focus on your recovery. A successful claim can provide compensation for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.
