Cherry Hill Delayed Heart Attack Diagnosis Attorneys
Strokes and heart attacks can be life changing at best and fatal at worst. Doctors and other medical professionals that work both inside and outside of the emergency room are highly trained to deal with these conditions. When they fail to recognize and treat them, or their negligence actually leads to these conditions, they should be held accountable.
The Ferrara Law Firm, LLC, has been handling medical malpractice cases since 1972. Our experience means we understand the nuances involved in these types of cases, which are often considered among the most challenging types of personal injury cases. We know how to get results, which is evident in the millions of dollars our lawyers have already recovered for malpractice victims throughout New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania.
Misdiagnosis and Failure to Diagnose Heart Attacks and Strokes
People frequently arrive in emergency rooms complaining of chest pains or symptoms of strokes. Doctors have access to a wide variety of tests, including electrocardiograms, that can determine whether or not the patient is suffering from a heart attack or stroke.
Unfortunately, doctors may fail to request these tests for patients. They may write a heart attack as a case of heartburn. The patient may be sent home without being properly treated, only to suffer the full impact of a heart attack or stroke.
Strokes and Heart Attacks Caused by Anesthesia Errors
Anesthesia errors can have devastating consequences. If the wrong amount of anesthesia is administered or oxygen flow is not monitored properly, it can lead to any number of serious medical problems, including strokes and heart attacks. When anesthesiologists fail to properly care for their patients during surgery, they should be held accountable.
