Because medicine is not an exact science, a physician’s inability to identify a cure does not automatically imply medical negligence. However, in other circumstances, doctors behave in ways that are inconsistent with the standards of other area practitioners. For example, doctors may administer unsuitable medications if they have not reviewed your medical data, surgeons may operate on the wrong portion of the body, and dentists may extract healthy teeth. It costs nothing to speak with one of our Patchogue injury attorneys, who have the knowledge and experience to assess the most likely causes of medical negligence.
