Establishing medical malpractice can be a difficult and overwhelming process. Mistakes can happen to anyone, and doctors and medical professionals are not exempt. There are also differences between medical malpractice and medical negligence. Some common examples of medical malpractice include:
- Failing to diagnose or misdiagnosing a condition
- Failing to follow up properly after surgery and/or treatment
- Providing unnecessary treatments or failing to provide necessary treatments
- Prescribing/giving the wrong dosage of medication
- Ignoring or misreading laboratory results
- Performing unnecessary or the wrong surgery, or surgery on the wrong part of the body
- Discharging a patient prematurely
