Botched surgery by VA

I had surgery to remove possible

breast cancer. It was the size of a

grain of rice.

I guide wire was used to pin point the

area. The doctor removed ALL tissue

along the wire. About 1/3 of my

breast.

I was instructed by a patient

advocate to file a tort. Where do I

begin?
