Delayed Diagnosis/Misdiagnosis
Receiving diagnosis of a medical condition can be a frightening time in a person's life. When the diagnosis is given in a timely manner, many options exist to keep the illness from progressing. When a patient receives a delayed diagnosis, or when a doctor fails to diagnosis a condition altogether, families can experience many problems and devastating losses. At the Law Offices of Gretchen Myers, we provide experienced, effective legal guidance to people who have received misdiagnoses and delayed diagnoses of cancer, heart attack, stroke and other medical conditions.

If you have received a misdiagnosis, you need a lawyer who listens.If you believe hospital negligence or medical malpractice has occurred, it is important to speak with an attorney who has the resources to fully investigate the potential of your claim. As your attorney, Gretchen will take time to listen to your side of the story. She will gain a complete understanding of how the misdiagnosis has impacted your family. Gretchen has obtained significant verdicts and settlements on behalf of those who have been affected by late diagnoses. The following are the most frequent conditions misdiagnosed:
- Cancer
- Heart attack
- Stroke
The mistake may have happened at a yearly check-up or in an emergency room. Perhaps the patient's concerns were not taken seriously, the proper diagnostic tests were not ordered or a specialist should have been called onto the case earlier. These mistakes can result in serious medical problems and untimely deaths.
In whatever way a medical mistake has harmed you or taken a loved one away from you, we invite you to contact the Law Offices of Gretchen Myers, P.C. to schedule your free initial consultation.
