Medical and
Insurance Disputes


My doctor messed up my surgery. Can I go after the doctor?
You need to consult an attorney regarding medical malpractice. An action for medical malpractice is a very complicated procedure and an attorney needs to review medical records and consult other medical experts to determine if medical malpractice actually occurred, and if a lawsuit can/should be filed against the doctor.

The hospital emergency room treated me for the wrong problem. What can I do?
There is a cause of action in Florida for negligence of a hospital emergency room. You need to contact an attorney regarding that kind of matter to analyze what happened to you and determine if there could be negligence on the part of the hospital.

I went to the hospital and no one would treat me because I did not have insurance. Is this malpractice?
Most hospitals check to see if a person has health insurance before he/she is treated or admitted to the hospital. It is not malpractice if you are refused treatment at a private hospital. However, a public not-for-profit hospital cannot refuse to treat you if you do not have insurance.
