If you’re unsure whether your experience qualifies as medical malpractice, here are some important steps to take:
- Trust Your Instincts: If something feels wrong, take it seriously. Many patients hesitate to question their providers, but your health and rights matter.
- Document Everything: Keep records of appointments, prescriptions, communications with providers, and any symptoms or complications you’ve experienced.
- Seek a Second Medical Opinion: Another provider can offer an unbiased review and potentially identify errors or lapses in care.
- Don’t Delay: There are legal time limits to file a malpractice claim. The sooner you act, the better your chances of building a strong case.
- Talk to an Attorney: A qualified medical malpractice attorney can evaluate your situation, review your records, and explain your legal options.
