Hospital Emergency Department Negligence

Emergency Room Entrance

There are many scenarios which present in the hospital emergency department which require prompt life-saving treatment, or proper diagnosis to ensure timely treatment. Such medical conditions, for example, include a patient presenting with a heart attack, or pain from a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Similarly, the presentation to an emergency department routinely involves radiographic testing in the form of x-rays, CT scans and MRIs. When these studies are not interpreted correctly, a physician may fail to diagnose a medical condition such as bleeding in the brain or orthopedic fracture where prompt treatment is essential to prevent serious permanent injury or death.

We will investigate all facets of your potential claim, obtaining and reviewing all the relevant evidence, and work with medical experts to craft a credible, legitimate claim if medical negligence is responsible for producing an injury. We will be at your side throughout the process, preparing and filing all necessary documentation, and acting as your advocate in all proceedings, including settlement discussion, mediation or trial, if necessary.

We offer an initial free consultation. Call our office at 717-509-6141, or email Ms. Strang-Kutay at ask@strangkutaylaw.com to arrange for an office consultation or telephone consult.
