Many Georgia residents are unaware that there are different types of medical malpractice.  Medication errors are one of the most common types of medical malpractice. Medication errors can occur if a doctor prescribes the wrong drug or if a pharmacist mislabels the medication. Nurses are also capable of medication errors; there have been many situations where a nurse gives too little or too much of a medication. Medication errors can cause severe injuries and, occasionally, they can lead to fatalities. Surgical errors are a common type of Georgia medical malpractice, as well. Surgical errors can occur from anesthesia errors, doctors operating on the wrong body part, the use of unsterilized equipment or if a tech leaves surgical tools in the body. Patients that have been misdiagnosed by a negligent doctor, nurse practitioner, or a healthcare professional may also be eligible to file a medical malpractice claim.

Individuals that have been harmed after receiving substandard care may be eligible to file a medical malpractice claim. There is a statue of limitations for Georgia citizens to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. It is imperative for injured patients to discuss their legal options with a skilled attorney. The Eichholz Law Firm offers medical malpractice case evaluations at no charge.
