Smith & Jenkins, P.C. | Vidalia • Savannah

Emergency Room Negligence Attorneys and Medical Malpractice Lawyers

People go to the emergency room for a multitude of reasons such as aches, pains, and injuries. Some are severe, others are not. But the fact remains, emergency room doctors can see a lot of patients with a lot of symptoms and injuries in a short period of time. That is why emergency rooms can be a very stressful workplace in the healthcare profession. It's also why critical mistakes that seriously harm their patients can occur.

  • Medication errors
  • Prescription errors
  • Misdiagnosis / delayed
    diagnosis
  • Failure to diagnose
    encephalitis or meningitis
  • Failure to consult with a
    specialist
  • Failure to treat
  • 'Patient dumping' (transferring
    patients before properly stabilized)

Hospitals that are under-staffed or emergency rooms that are not well equipped may lead to fatal errors while dealing with patients requiring emergency treatment. This is particularly true in cases of people who have suffered or who are in the process of suffering heart attacks or strokes. Often, in an effort to clear their waiting areas, emergency rooms will send these people home when they shouldn't.

If you believe that either you or a loved one has been the victim of negligent emergency room treatment or hospital malpractice, our experienced emergency room negligence attorneys would like you to call and tell us your story. We offer free initial consultations and we are here, ready to start working for you.
