Re: Destroyed medical records
California statutes require hospitals to retain records for a period of I believe seven years. If agent orange is your issue, we might be talking Vietnam era and thereafter. If these records were of treatment within the last seven years, look into it further, and/or give me a call. If older, there's not much you can do.
