According to studies, as many as 440,000 victims in the U.S. die each year from preventable hospital errors made by a medical professional. That makes medical negligence the third leading cause of death in America.

What Exactly Is Considered Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is a broad term. It can result from any number of causes, including improper use of a medical device, misdiagnosis, surgical errors, hospital-based infections, anesthesia mistakes, and delay in diagnosis or treatment. That includes the failure to diagnose cancer.

Such misdiagnosis cases are far more common than you might think. A recent Institute for Medicine study found that most Americans will suffer from a doctor's failure to diagnose a condition at least once in their lifetime, often with tragic results.

The complex nature of such cases underscores the need for hiring the best Allentown medical malpractice attorney in Lehigh Valley, PA to handle your case.
