Every minute is crucial in a heart attack or stroke. A misdiagnosis can cause deadly delay in treatment and can be the basis of a medical malpractice lawsuit. Contact us today to learn more.
Heart attack and stroke misdiagnosis often results in death or permanent damage to the victim. The challenge is to prove that the misdiagnosis itself caused the injury or death, rather than an underlying genetic predisposition, congenital defect or existing cardiovascular disease.
The experienced attorneys at the Carter Law Offices are dedicated to finding the truth in these difficult cases. Timeliness is the key factor in cases of heart attack or stroke misdiagnosis, and it can take the help of a team of independent medical experts to thoroughly evaluate all the evidence and establish proof of doctor malpractice or emergency room error in the failure to diagnose these life threatening conditions.
Emergency rooms are often the site of heart attack or stroke misdiagnosis. Too many patients and too few doctors often result in mix-ups − the symptoms of a heart attack or stroke being overlooked or dismissed as innocuous. Our firm is committed to standing up for the rights of clients who have sustained serious and permanent injuries due to the failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis of a stroke or heart attack. We also handle wrongful death cases for families whose loved ones died as the result of their misdiagnosis or lack of diagnosis.
Did a doctor miss the data? Was there adequate time to correctly diagnose the condition? Could something have been done to remediate the crisis?

We believe it is our duty to help victims of heart attack or stroke misdiagnosis find out the truth about what really happened, and then to hold those responsible for the harm they have caused.
