Pursuing Compensation for the Victims of Cancer Misdiagnosis
Most types of cancer are completely curable if diagnosed early, and many types of cancer produce signs and symptoms that a doctor should recognize long before the cancer becomes incurable. Doctors who fail to take the appropriate diagnostic steps can be held accountable.
At The Kauffman Firm in Albuquerque, we act on behalf of clients nationwide who have been harmed as a result of physicians' failure to diagnose cancer. Our team of New Mexico lawyers is led by Gregory Kauffman, a triple board-certified, practice-experienced medical doctor.
Carefully Evaluating Whether Your Doctor Committed Malpractice
As one of the major causes of death in the United States, cancer is the subject of detailed professional standards within the medical community. These standards include screening intervals, differential diagnosis procedures, and the use of tests such as imaging and biopsies.
When doctors fail to follow the appropriate standards and their patients are harmed as a result, they can be held responsible for medical malpractice. Our firm represents the victims of malpractice in the diagnosis of cancers such as, but not limited to, the following:
- Brain tumors
- Breast cancer
- Colon cancer
- Pancreatic cancer
- Prostate cancer
- Cervical cancer
If you have been harmed because a physician failed to diagnose or misdiagnosed any type of cancer, our firm will work with experienced medical experts to carefully document your case, and our experienced trial attorneys will diligently pursue the compensation you deserve.
