Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Pennsylvania

MedMal in PA

What is the statute of limitations for bringing a MedMal suit in PA, and how would I know if I have a valid case?

In October 2003 a gynocologist performed a surprise rectal exam during a routine appointment on a patient who had an illeo-anal anastamosis, the result of colo-rectal surgery. The doctor caused a fissure. The patient required the medical expertise of her surgeon through several visits and much medication, and is still having physical problems due to the doctor's mistake.
