Maryland Surgical Error Attorneys

Did Your Surgeon in Bethesda Make A Mistake?

There are no guarantees with surgery. There are always risks. A surgeon can do everything exactly right at exactly the right times and still end up with a bad result. But a lot can go wrong during surgery that has nothing to do with chance – just bad medicine.

Whatever the reason, we hold negligent health care providers accountable for the injuries and harm they cause.

At Rowe, Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC, we have the experience and resources it takes to establish medical negligence, and we will work hard to obtain full compensation for the damages you have suffered because of it. For a realistic assessment of potential medical negligence claims in Maryland; Washington, D.C.; or northern Virginia, contact Rowe, Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC.

Why Do Surgical Errors Occur?

As experienced attorneys, we know what questions to ask, which experts to talk to and where to look for evidence of most types of surgical errors, including:

• Giving a patient too much or the wrong type of medication or anesthesia
• Giving a patient the wrong blood type
• Misreading a medical chart or medical history
• Performing the wrong surgery or the right surgery on the wrong part of the body
• Failing to detect inadvertent cuts to internal organs
• Failing to diagnose and treat a postoperative infection

Our attorneys have extensive experience, strong knowledge of the medical issues and malpractice, and a proven track record of getting results in even the toughest of personal injury cases. We are also able to draw on the knowledge of doctors, nurses and other health care professionals to help us build a clear, complete and compelling case for the compensation you deserve.

In many cases, surgical mistakes grow out of system failures, such as poor communication between the surgeon and operating room staff, inadequate preoperative planning, or fatigue from long shifts. A surgical error lawyer Maryland patients choose to represent them will look beyond the immediate mistake to examine hospital policies, charting practices, and staffing decisions that may have contributed to the harm. By carefully reviewing what happened before, during, and after your procedure, we can identify every party who may be responsible and pursue accountability through negotiation or litigation in the appropriate Maryland court.
