Failure to Diagnose

The most dangerous mistake that a doctor or healthcare professional can make is to do nothing at all when something needs to be done. A delay in or failure to diagnose a serious medical condition and take appropriate medical action can lead to crippling injuries and the onset of dangerous diseases. The effects of a failure to diagnose could take hours or even years before they are realized. At DeLuca & Weizenbaum, Ltd., our attorneys have considerable experience helping people who are victims of medical malpractice due to a failure to diagnose.
