The Dangers of a Wrong Diagnosis
When a doctor or other healthcare provider misdiagnoses a patient’s ailment, the patient may suffer unintended consequences. Since treatment is based on the diagnosis, patients who receive the wrong diagnosis will not receive treatment for their actual ailments.
Possible consequences of a wrong diagnosis include:
- Progression of the illness to a more severe stage
- Harm or complications resulting from incorrect treatment
- Long-lasting disabilities or impairments
Patients who are given an incorrect diagnosis may, in certain extreme situations, lose their lives as a result of not receiving timely treatment for their underlying illnesses.
If a patient has been seriously harmed due to a misdiagnosis, they may be eligible for financial compensation for their injuries. It is recommended that individuals who have suffered harm from a misdiagnosis consult with a Springfield medical malpractice lawyer for legal guidance.
