When you seek medical care, you trust doctors, nurses, and hospitals to provide the right treatment. Sadly, medical mistakes happen far too often, and the consequences can be devastating — leading to permanent injury, lifelong disability, or even death.

What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional or facility fails to meet the accepted standard of care, resulting in harm to a patient.

Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis – Missing or delaying the correct diagnosis can prevent timely treatment.
Surgical errors – Operating on the wrong site, leaving surgical instruments inside the body, or causing avoidable injury during surgery.
Medication mistakes – Prescribing the wrong medication or incorrect dosage.
Birth injuries – Harm to a newborn or mother due to negligence during pregnancy, labor, or delivery.
Negligent aftercare – Failing to provide proper follow-up treatment or monitoring after a procedure.
