A misdiagnosis can cause a medical condition to worsen, potentially leading to irreversible health problems or even death. If a doctor’s misdiagnosis rises to the level of negligence, liable parties may cover medical costs, pain and suffering, lost income, and other damages you suffered.
A Frisco misdiagnosis lawyer from Underwood Law Office will fight for the financial recovery you deserve. We work to make the community of Frisco safer by helping those needlessly harmed by others, and your misdiagnosis case will be part of this mission.
Damages Resulting from a Misdiagnosis in Frisco
The consequences of a misdiagnosis depend on the condition in question but can lead to:
- Excessive testing, which may cause discomfort, trauma, and financial expenses for the patient
- Greater probability of health problems
- Greater probability of death
Misdiagnosing a patient could also lead them to undergo risky surgery or other dangerous treatments. When you are misdiagnosed by a medical professional, they fail to treat the problem affecting your quality of life. The potential damages, therefore, can be intense and widespread.
As we handle your misdiagnosis case in Frisco, we may seek compensation to cover:
Pain and Suffering
A misdiagnosis can directly or indirectly cause several forms of pain and suffering, including:
- Physical pain, which may result from treatments a medical professional prescribes or from symptoms left unaddressed
- Lost quality of life
- Discomfort caused by treatments based on an inaccurate diagnosis
- Side effects of treatments a medical professional improperly orders
A medical malpractice lawyer from Underwood Law Office will work with mental health professionals to identify all forms of pain and suffering you experienced.
Medical Expenses Resulting from the Misdiagnosis
Any medical services that have proven unnecessary should be recoverable. This includes any tests, treatments, or other procedures stemming directly from a misdiagnosis.
We may also recover the cost of negligent care. You should not have had to pay for a doctor to misdiagnose you.
Professional Damages
You may receive money to cover professional damages resulting from a misdiagnosis, including:
- Lost income
- Lost bonuses
- Lost promotions
- Lost retirement contributions
- Lost earning power
- Lost productivity
A misdiagnosis can lead to medical issues that permanently prevent you from working. If this is the case, we’ll project the cost of your professional damages through your retirement age.
Any Other Damages Resulting from the Misdiagnosis
If you suffered any other losses because of a medical professional’s negligence, we’ll include those losses in your medical malpractice lawsuit.
Our Frisco misdiagnosis lawyer understands the elements of medical malpractice, and they recognize a misdiagnosis when they see it. They will pursue a financial recovery that fairly compensates you for the harm a doctor caused.
