Southern Illinois Malpractice Lawyer
The direct outcome of surgery is critical, of course. How a surgical patient is monitored and cared for in the hours, days and weeks afterward can be equally critical for a positive outcome.
Under Illinois law, any failure to provide appropriate treatment for a medical condition can constitute medical malpractice. This includes serious mismanagement of post-surgical care. However, investigation of such claims is challenging and the burden of proof heavy, calling for an experienced lawyer with proven skills and resources.
We have the in-house knowledge and network of qualified experts to carefully analyze your potential claim involving:
- Surgical errors
- Failure to respond effectively to post-surgical bleeding
- Failure to recognize and treat a post-surgical infection
- Inadequate monitoring to answer known risks and prevent catastrophic outcomes such as an embolism, brain injury or nerve injury
- Lack of communication between different doctors or other hospital personnel
- Serious medication errors resulting in overdose or severe allergic reaction
