Virginia failure to diagnose attorneys

Local Roots. Nationwide Experience.

Personal service that delivers real results.

We care about patients who have been hurt and seek justice for them

The first step to healing is a correct diagnosis.

Without knowing exactly what illness or injury you have, doctors won’t be able to prescribe the right treatment that will ultimately cure you. Even worse, an incorrect diagnosis can delay your treatment and allow you to get worse, not better.

Here’s a scary number: 12 million Americans are misdiagnosed each year, according to CBS News. Kaiser reports even scarier numbers: an estimated 10 to 20 percent of ALL cases are misdiagnosed, and one study reported that fatal diagnostic errors in intensive care cause 40,500 deaths every year.

If your doctor made a diagnostic error because of negligence, you have grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit. These cases are tricky to handle, but extremely necessary for people who have suffered the kind of harm medical mistakes can cause.

For example, missing an early stage of cancer and allowing the disease to spread can mean the patient will need more extreme, expensive treatments just to survive.

If you or a member of your family is in trouble now because of a misdiagnosis, please talk to us at GibsonSingleton Virginia Injury Attorneys. We’re sorry that you’re suffering, and we want to help. Whether we simply give you helpful advice or take your case to court, we have the experience in medical malpractice to make a difference to you.

To find out about your legal rights and options as a patient, call our misdiagnosed each year. You won’t be charged anything upfront, and we only get paid if we win your case for you. For a free consultation, call (804) 413-6777 or toll-free at (855) 781-6777 today.
