Millions Recovered for Injured Patients
Doctors and hospitals, as well as medical clinics, are not infallible.

The condition can progress to a point where it cannot be treated successfully. If you were misdiagnosed and suffered serious consequences, contact The Moore Law Firm.

A Failure to Diagnose, or Delayed Diagnosis
When a person has a serious illness or condition, and the diagnosis by the doctor was incorrect, the condition or illness can progress to the point where it cannot be treated. Certain cancers can be treated successfully, but early intervention is critical. Beyond that point, the percentage of those who survive reduces radically.
Commonly Misdiagnosed Conditions
Some of the more common conditions that have been misdiagnosed include:
- Spinal cord damage
- Heart attack
- Stroke
- Meningitis
- Various pregnancy complications
Misdiagnosis of these conditions can lead to the patient suffering complications, injuries, or in the most tragic cases, permanent brain damage, paralysis, or loss of life. If you believe your physician, surgeon or other medical professional failed to correctly diagnose your condition, contact our firm without delay.
Pursuing Compensation for Your Suffering
The situation can allow you to pursue compensation for all damages through a medical malpractice claim. A doctor making an error does not necessarily mean that the case has merit; in order for a medical malpractice claim to be successful, the patient must have damages, such as a condition that is permanent or long term, an illness that affected the ability to function, or situation such as an advanced cancer that could have been treated if diagnosed correctly.
If your physician has failed to diagnose you, and did not apply the accepted standard in treating you, it is likely that you could recover damages. The doctor's malpractice insurance company will not make it easy, and you need a high quality, experienced Cincinnati misdiagnosis lawyer to manage your case.
Call our firm at (513) 232-2000 for more information about a misdiagnosis case that led to injury, illness, a permanent condition or loss of life.
