Stroke Misdiagnosis
Columbus Stroke Misdiagnosis Attorney
If a stroke is not properly diagnosed and treated quickly, the consequences can be severe or even fatal. Sadly, medical professionals can ignore warning signs or delay treatment.
Some of the most common warning signs of a stroke include dizziness, loss of balance, numbness or weakness on one side of the body, and blurred vision. If warning signs were ignored by a doctor, or if the condition was misdiagnosed and a stroke occurred, the patient may have a medical malpractice claim.
Not all strokes can be prevented. But all too often a medical misdiagnosis makes it impossible to stop the progression of the damage caused by the stroke. Our firm can investigate your injury and determine if your health care provider was negligent in misdiagnosing the stroke. If so, we can help you obtain compensation to cover the current and anticipated costs of dealing with the injury.
