Doctors Do Make Mistakes

We expect doctors to be reliable, honest and always attentive to their patient's safety. Unfortunately, doctors do make mistakes, either due to bad judgment or simple negligence or recklessness. They may offer an incorrect diagnosis, recommend the wrong prescriptions, or commit any other error that causes severe injury and pain to a patient.

Medical outcomes are not guaranteed. And, of course, an unwanted or unanticipated result does not mean someone is guilty of medical malpractice or medical negligence. However, if a medical professional does not follow accepted standards of care and that failure caused a bad result, you may have a medical malpractice case. The only way to find out is to call us.

Here at Bellotti Law Group, P.C., we understand that critical decisions can affect you forever. Our lawyers work to get to the bottom of the misdiagnosis or improper course of treatment, yet understand the human side of these cases. We know you have suffered.

Medical outcomes are not guaranteed. An unwanted outcome does not mean someone is guilty of medical malpractice or medical negligence. But if a medical professional does not follow accepted standards of care and that failure causes a bad result, you may have a medical malpractice case. This is why screening is essential in a medical malpractice case. Our attorneys have the experience it takes to review complex medical records and consult with medical experts to determine the strength of your potential claim.

Our goal is to obtain the best result given the injuries you have suffered. We will not charge attorneys' fees unless we are successful.

• Failure to diagnose: When a doctor fails to diagnose a disease, essential treatment may not be provided and that can cause a situation that is even worse than the patient imagined. Failure to diagnose cancer in the early stages, for example, can be the difference between effective treatment and, in the worst cases, an untimely death. If a loved one has been harmed because of a failure to diagnose, contact an experienced medical malpractice attorney.
• Erb's palsy, cerebral palsy, and other birth injuries: When a fetus is in distress, medical professionals need to act quickly and appropriately to prevent injury. If medical professionals failed to monitor the fetus and respond to a dangerous situation, the resulting lack of oxygen or a difficult delivery can mean a lifetime of disability.
• Obstetric injuries to the mother: Childbirth can be dangerous. Doctors and maternity health care professionals have an obligation to carefully monitor both mother and child for any problems during labor and post-birth.
• Emergency room errors: When emergency room medical professionals fail to diagnose and treat a patient appropriately, the injuries can be life threatening. If your loved one's injury or condition was misdiagnosed, mistreated or left untreated, talk to a medical negligence lawyer who can help you find out what happened.
