Recognizing the Signs of Medical Malpractice

April 2024

A person who has been injured by medical malpractice should realize it is important to recognize some common signs.  A primary sign to watch for is the worsening symptoms after treatment.  Additional signs to look for is unexplained complications, lack of communication from the healthcare provider or a lack of transparencey when information is sought.  Further, a patient should trust their own judgment when they think that something is just not right.

Being injured by a doctor is a traumatic experience that requires the navigation of legal and medical challenges.  The injured person should seek experienced counsel to recognize the signs of negligence and empower the injured person to seek justice through the legal system.
