New York City Medical Negligence Lawyers
Experienced Legal Help Following a Failure to Diagnose a Heart Attack
When you enter a hospital or other medical care facility with heart attack symptoms like numbness in the extremities and/or chest pain you deserve proper medical care which may include:
- A one-on-one consultation with a doctor
- An EKG test
- A stress test. Stress tests are generally performed on a treadmill and measure your heart activity when your heart is operating a level similar to that which is achieved while shoveling snow or running.
If your medical care provider failed to detect a heart attack and instead sent you home with a diagnosis of heartburn, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) or another ailment, you may have a valid claim for medical malpractice. The New York City medical negligence lawyers:
- Have recovered dozens of six- and seven-figure awards for victims of medical malpractice
- Are leaders of city, state and national trial and medical malpractice organizations
- Are frequent authors and lecturers on the topic of medical malpractice
