Lexington Surgical Error Attorney
Contact a Lexington Medical Malpractice Lawyer Today
No matter how small or large a surgical procedure may be, all surgeries come with an element of risk. Unfortunately, part of this risk involves the possibility that an error will be made. This can involve a surgeon’s mistake, an instance of hospital negligence, or an anesthesiologist error. Any mistake involving any stage of a surgical procedure has the potential to cause serious harm or death to a patient.

If you have been injured or have suffered the loss of a loved one, we encourage you to contact a Lexington medical malpractice attorney at our firm to learn more about your legal rights. You may be entitled to substantial compensation for your losses.
How Surgical Errors Occur
Surgical errors happen when a surgeon, nurse, or other hospital staff member fails to give their full attention to a patient and his or her medical history. If you have been injured and are unsure of whether medical negligence played a role, it is a good idea to get in touch with an experienced medical malpractice attorney who can investigate your case and determine whether you have legal recourse.
Surgical errors include:
- Performing a procedure on the wrong body part
- Accidentally leaving a foreign object inside the body
- Failing to promptly monitor the patient and react to any problems that arise
- Failing to consider the patient’s medical history when administering anesthesia
- Accidentally damaging an internal organ
Doctors who cause preventable injury to their patients should be held responsible for the damages that their patients have suffered.
