Why don't you ask the pharmacist in West Virginia; he or she should know.

This is a very interesting question. It is important to note that anyone can file a lawsuit in Florida for almost any reason. However, the critical question you may want answered is will you prevail on a negligence claim against the EMT. It appears that the answer will depend in part on whether you... View More

Sorry to hear about this. I would suggest doing a search of the clerk of court in the county where the physician practices using their name. Additionally, you could go to the Florida Department of Health website and do a search for adverse incidents. I would share a link but the website won't... View More

Attend law school, get admitted to the bar, and start practicing "medical" law.

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. It would be difficult for an attorney to answer your question as to whether your boyfriend has a case based on these brief facts. To answer your question, most attorneys would want to see medical records and consult... View More

I assume you mean "defendant", not dependent. There is no cause of action (ground for lawsuit) called "medical battery". If you were the victim of a battery (an intentional act), you would sue for battery - and you may or may not have a separate cause of action for negligence... View More

A Florida attorney could advise best here, but your question remains open for three weeks. It could depend on the extent of damages resulting from the insertion. I hope it did not cause serious damage, but that's something a medical professional would be needed to substantiate. You could... View More

Yes, you can file for the 90-day statutory extension prior to filing your Notice of Intent as long as the statute of limitations has not already expired.

It would be best for a Florida attorney to advise you, but your post remains open for four weeks. The things you describe, such as gauze, antibiotics, and related care are something that a convalescing patient would need, malpractice or no malpractice. Those are nothing in comparison to follow-up... View More

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. You've provided considerable information, but there didn't appear to be a question.

There is no correlation between medical malpractice and billing of insurance. An RN can cut nails [of patients] if that is part of his/her duties. Medical malpractice may occur if the standard of care is not met. Additional facts will be needed to answer your question.

Well if an earlier diagnosis would have precluded the need for surgery then there could be an instance of medical negligence to file a claim. More facts are needed to know whether the earlier detection of the infection would have precluded the need for surgery.

Just say no. If they refuse to treat you anymore, so be it; get another health care provider.

I am trying to understand your facts. What exactly, is the reconstructive surgery you are having done. I am not understanding why removal of a wisdom tooth would cause you to need reconstructive surgery? What exactly is the surgery you need now? Can you clear that up?

You will need an... View More

Next time, find a different hospital.

It doesn't appear that you have been damaged monetarily by the hospital's mistakes.

There are no facts provided involving the situation you ask about. It might be possible they were left off accidentally while posting your question. Good luck

You can not, according to what you have indicated, for discrimination. Perhaps you could sue for negligence or, if what you say is correct, intentional tort.

I'm sorry for your painful ordeal here. From the facts you present, failure to remove the first IUD appears to be breach of duty of care, which would ordinarily be a basis for a medical malpractice case (together with other legal elements that include causality and damages). If you are... View More
