Re: misdianosis

It depends. If the diagnosis is the type of condition which progresses you may have a viable lawsuit. Otherwise you have no injury. Only serious injury is viable to support a med mal case since the cost of bringing the suits in terms of expert witness fees are high. Have the case reviewed by an experience med mal lawyer.

Re: misdianosis

Sorry for the late reply.

The most important information is missing here. What injuries are you claiming as a result of failure to diagnose? Did you loose one of your kidneys? Are you in therapy because of that?

Let me know the answers and I'll provide you with a free consultation.
