Many people reach out to their medical professionals like they are their very own security blanket. We put all our trust in them to help us improve our health and way of life. There are many health care professionals that do wonders for so many people. However there are those cases where you become a victim of poor treatment, misdiagnosis, or even surgical negligence. Advanced Private Investigator & Security of Fort Lauderdale Florida wants to help you prevent and recognize it if you are becoming a victim of medical malpractice.
Medical Misdignosis Lawsuits
A warning sign that shouldn’t be ignored is if your treatment isn’t working. Those who have undergone treatment and have no signs of improvement could have been misdiagnosed. This can lead to additional problems with your health. One of the biggest concerns with misdiagnosis is that the actual medical condition will progress and get worse. If such should be the case, you are now a victim of misdiagnosis and medical malpractice.
Waived Medical & Laboratory Tests
If you were diagnosed with a serious condition with nothing more than a basic lab test, then you were not given the proper diagnosis process. This may lead to misdiagnosis by your physician. Yes, doctors use many forms of lab tests to deepen their understanding of your body and its problem. However each doctor needs to spend time with you as well. They need to hear what you are feeling and understand your health complaints in order to know exactly what kind of tests you need to properly diagnose you.
Doctor Prescribes Ineffective Treatment
Another form of common malpractice happens when your doctor prescribed a treatment that doesn’t fit your condition. Modern medicine is very expensive and often you are prescribed an expensive drug that has no effect or benefits to your health. Being mistreated or unnecessarily prescribed an ineffective treatment is an unfair expense and is considered malpractice.
Average Time to Diagnose Medical Conditions
A doctor isn’t doing their job if they don’t take the time to provide you with information about your treatment or diagnosis. Be wary of doctors that seem rushed or don’t make an effort to help you understand your health condition or how a prescribed treatment will improve your health. This can be a sign that the doctor is unsure of your treatment or even your condition.
Understaffing of Nurses in Hospitals & Health Care Facilities
If the healthcare facility seems a bit understaffed, you may also find yourself neglected. This can pose a serious problem especially for those who just underwent surgery. This neglect or lack of care when recovering may lead to life threatening situations or prolong your medical needs which again will be an expense you must pay for. An error made during surgery or treatment is an issue many have faced. Doctors are obligated “to do no harm.” If an error was made during surgery or treatment, and causes further health problem to you; you have the right to compensation.
