Surgical Error Claims in Washington, DC

All surgeries have a certain degree of risk. Risks should be understood by patients before they agree to any surgical procedure; however, surgical errors caused by the negligence or incompetence of attending medical staff are not an acceptable risk. All hospital employees involved in your surgery are bound by a duty to provide you with reasonable medical treatment that does no harm. When they fail to do so and you suffer an injury as a result, you may be able to seek compensation with a medical malpractice claim.

The Cochran Firm DC is a branch of the nationally recognized Cochran Firm.

Examples of Surgical Errors

Common sources of medical negligence include:

  • Medication errors
  • Wrong-site surgery
  • Anesthesia errors
  • Infection caused by poor sanitation
  • Internal injuries caused by careless incisions
  • Surgical instruments left inside of a patient

Some injuries can result from a doctor’s failure to consider your full medical history. Others can result from ineptitude, recklessness, or sheer disinterest on the part of a surgeon or other hospital staff member. No matter the specific cause of your injury, if negligence was involved, you deserve to be compensated for all your injury-related costs.
