Your Malpractice Story Matters:
Pediatric malpractice occurs when a medical provider falls below the standard of care we expect to be provided to our child. This can occur both in hospitals and at the doctor’s office. Pediatric claims are unique in that they sometimes can be filed many years after the initial treatment. If you or your child was injured by pediatric malpractice, it might not be too late to seek justice, even if several years have passed.
Approximately 21% of pediatricians have been the subject of a pediatric malpractice claim or lawsuit.
During an initial consultation, we’ll discuss what happened to you and make a decision together about the next steps for your case.
Most times, we start with our pediatrician for our child’s problem. We rely on the pediatrician to recognize the problem and make the appropriate referral(s). Sometimes pediatricians cause delays in the diagnosis or treatment that end in tragic permanent and catastrophic injuries or even death.
Errors in diagnosis of serious conditions like infection, meningitis, cancer, or appendicitis can make a treatable condition much more severe, or even untreatable. Errors in medications or dosages can cause permanent catastrophic injury. Even surgical errors can make a fixable problem permanent.
Our pediatrician often serves as the hub through which we receive information. They get the x-ray results, blood work, and notes from specialists. A failure or miscommunication of important findings, recommendations, or results can cause permanent and catastrophic results.
When those you trust with your child's life and health make medical mistakes, the consequences can be life-changing. Our clients share their powerful stories of seeking justice and finding resolution after experiencing pediatric medical malpractice in Ohio.
