Q: How do I go about suing hospital and/or doctor for using incorrect medical procedure before cutting my finger?
I was seen at one hospital for infection in the finger the dr was moving very quickly and didnt use proper cleaning/sanitation on me nor the medical instruments used! Which has caused far more damage and as resulted in the amputation of my finger
A:
The first thing you could do is to contact a North Carolina med mal attorney to discuss what happened in further detail. If they felt you had the basis for a case, they could request your records and review them with a medical professional. Most attorneys in this area of practice offer free initial consults. Good luck
