Surgical Error
Any time a doctor operates on a patient, there are going to be risks involved. Regrettably, not all doctors are caring for their patients in a manner that the standard of medical care requires. A mistake that occurs during a surgery that is potentially negligent, is typically an event or an outcome that was not a known risk of the procedure. It is the goal of a malpractice claim to show that the error or outcome should have been avoided and would have been avoided had the medical staff been appropriately trained and experienced.
