    Common Questions
    • What should I do if I suspect a surgical error?
      If you suspect a surgical error, seek a second opinion from another medical professional, and contact an attorney who specializes in medical malpractice. Gathering medical records and documentation of the procedure can help in assessing the situation.
    • Who can be held responsible for surgical errors?
      Typically, the surgeon and potentially other medical staff involved, such as the anesthesiologist or nurses, might be held responsible if they are found to have contributed to the error through negligence or omission.
    • What are examples of surgical errors?
      Examples include wrong-site surgery, incorrect procedures, process lapses such as not sterilizing equipment, leaving surgical tools inside the patient, and anesthesia errors. Each of these can have serious effects on the patient's health.
    • How long do I have to file a claim for a surgical error?
      The time limit to file a claim varies by state, known as the statute of limitations. It can range from one to several years from the date of the surgery or discovery of the error. Consulting with an attorney can help clarify your timeframe.
