Cases of Medical Malpractice in Tampa

We entrust our lives and our health into the hands of medical professionals for a wide variety to conditions and illnesses. We expect that the physician, surgeon, psychiatrist, or other medical professional will treat the illness or condition with the expected level of professional care. In some cases, an error or negligent act by a doctor or other professional can lead to serious injury, illness or death. When this has occurred, it may be possible to file a claim or lawsuit against the negligent physician, surgeon, facility or other liable party to seek compensation for damages. These errors range from medication or anesthetic errors to misdiagnosis, failures to diagnose, surgical errors, and other serious mistakes that have injured a patient. A breach of duty is a serious legal matter that must be addressed with the help of a skilled Tampa medical malpractice lawyer.

Our accomplished legal team is recognized for their impressive case results, and can evaluate your situation and advise you about moving forward with legal action.

Pharmacy Negligence

When we are sick or injured, we turn to our doctors for the help that we need to recover from the injuries or illness. In turn, the doctor may make a diagnosis, such as bronchitis or a broken bone, and will most likely prescribe a medication and a suggested routine to follow to begin rehabilitation. The doctor will then send the prescription to your local pharmacy to have it filled. We trust these pharmacists to provide us with the correct dosage, give us any important information and to give us the right medication altogether. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. Sometimes, a pharmacist may be moving so quickly that they put the wrong medicine into a pill bottle for a patient or they print the incorrect dosage. Even in cases where food must be taken with the medicine, yet the pharmacist fails to mention this out of negligence, serious harm may be inflicted upon the injured or ill patient.
