What is medical malpractice?
Medical malpractice happens when a doctor, hospital, or medical professional may have failed to provide proper care — leading to serious injury, complications, worsening conditions, or even death.
Not every bad outcome is malpractice. But surgical mistakes, delayed diagnosis, birth injuries, medication errors, and ignored symptoms can sometimes be signs that something went wrong.
If you feel like your concerns were ignored or something doesn’t seem right, it may be worth getting answers.
