Medical malpractice suit filed after alleged misdiagnosis
When it comes to effectively treating a disease or medical condition, the correct diagnosis is absolutely crucial. However, far too often, doctors and practitioners misinterpret symptoms and completely misdiagnose a condition, which prevents the patient from receiving the care and attention needed. In the state of Kentucky, failing to diagnose or misdiagnosing a patient can be considered medical malpractice. This allegedly happened to a patient in another state and he filed a lawsuit.
