When a doctor commits an error or fails to do something that reasonable medical judgment expects, and that conduct results in injury, loss or harm to a patient, the potential for a medical malpractice case arises. Unfortunately, medical errors and negligent acts can are not uncommon, and can include misdiagnosing a condition or injury, mismanaging the treatment of a condition or injury, or failing entirely to recognize a medical condition or injury that requires intervention. If a physician's conduct has deviated from the generally accepted standard of care and a patient is harmed, a malpractice case may arise. Claims of medical malpractice and negligence may also arise against a hospital, outpatient surgery center, nursing home or other healthcare institution for providing improper care, for problems associated with medications, as well as failures in nursing care provided by employees or staff of the hospital, surgical center or other institution. There are many situations giving rise to a claim for medical negligence and our firm has represented patients and family members of deceased patients in areas including misdiagnosis of cancer, surgery errors committed during operations (including surgical instruments being left inside of patients during their surgery), office procedures, out-patient surgery, infections acquired in hospital settings, pharmacy errors, nursing errors, and injuries and harm caused by FDA approved medical devices. Too often, the result of malpractice is the death of a loved one, and spouses and children are left behind. At Rush & Gransee, L.C., we will aggressively pursue and investigate all areas of wrongdoing, and seek full compensation for the harm and losses inflicted through medical malpractice errors.

Lawsuits involving medical malpractice are typically complex and expensive to pursue and win. When choosing a lawyer or law firm to represent you and your family, you should seek an attorney that is not only experienced and successful in the area of medical malpractice, but a law firm with the internal and external resources to aggressively pursue your case.
