Medical Misdiagnosis

Medical Malpractice Litigation Attorney Of Northern Virginia

In no profession is there a greater level of responsibility to the client than the field of medicine. When patients consult doctors, physician's assistants, or nurse practitioners to diagnose medical maladies, there is an expectation that the healthcare professional providing the opinion will not only identify the nature of the condition, but will determine the best course of action by which to treat it. But doctors make mistakes, and sometimes those errors could have been avoided. The northern Virginia law firm of Michael N. Driscoll, P.C. fights for the rights of those who have been injured due to medical malpractice and misdiagnoses. If you have received a diagnosis that failed to treat your medical condition, or possibly even made it worse, contact personal injury attorney Michael N. Driscoll of Manassas, VA.
