Surgical Negligence

All surgeries, whether performed in a surgical center or a hospital, depend on a team of health care providers and carry certain risks.

Injuries and complications may occur when a surgeon has failed to provide competent surgical care or has made a medical error.

Anesthesiologists, nurses, radiologists, and others must do their part if the surgery is to be successful.

Immediately after surgery, medical damage by surgical errors can often be remedied or minimized if the patient is properly monitored and problems can be promptly addressed.
