Most people trust that when they become sick or injured, the doctor they receive treatment from will provide the proper care they need. Although the vast majority of doctors in Jacksonville do fulfill the duty of care they owe patients, that is unfortunately not always the case. Doctors are human beings and they sometimes make mistakes just like anyone else. The difference is that when doctors make mistakes, people become seriously injured.

Physicians can sometimes be held liable when they make an error and a patient suffers harm. These cases are extremely complicated though, and any small misstep may result in losing your right to claim compensation. Our Jacksonville doctor error lawyer can ensure no mistakes are made so you receive the fair settlement you are entitled to.

What are Common Doctor Errors in Jacksonville?

No one wants to consider the possibility that when they visit a doctor, the physician will make a mistake. Sadly, it happens more than people think. The most common doctor errors in Jacksonville are as follows:

  • Surgical errors: Requiring surgery is always scary, but the effects can be catastrophic if a mistake is made. Some of the most common surgical errors include operating on the wrong patient or the wrong body part, not providing appropriate post-operative care, and leaving surgical tools inside patients.
  • Delayed or missed diagnosis: When people see a doctor to receive a diagnosis for an illness, they expect to be diagnosed fairly quickly. Doctors may negligently when they fail to diagnose the correct illness in a timely manner, or fail to diagnose a condition at all.
  • Birth injuries: Infants and mothers are very vulnerable in the labor and delivery room and either can suffer significant harm if doctors make a mistake. Unnecessarily delaying a Cesarean section, improper use of assistive birth tools, and failing to monitor the child properly are just some of the most common birth injuries caused by doctors’ mistakes.
  • Medication errors: Some of the most common medication errors include prescribing medication to the wrong person, prescribing the wrong dosage of a medication, and prescribing a medicine someone is allergic to.

Doctors’ Errors are Not Always Malpractice

When doctors act negligently and a patient suffers harm as a result, they can hold the physician liable for their careless actions or inactions. One of the most challenging parts of a malpractice case, however, is determining if negligence occurred.

Doctors often have to try a number of different treatment methods before they find one that is effective. Using this trial and error approach does not automatically mean malpractice occurred. To determine if you have a malpractice case, you must establish that another medical professional in a similar field would have acted in a different manner. This is very difficult, particularly when you are recovering from a doctor’s mistake. A Jacksonville doctor error lawyer will collect the necessary evidence to prove your case.
