  • Surgical Errors Are Medical Malpractice?

We all trust those in the medical field because
most of us know little to nothing about the human
body. Sure some of us may have a hobby of
binge-watching hospital dramas but would have no
clue what to do in a real emergency room. People
go to school for years to invest their time in
helping people get better. Even though doctors
and other health care providers vow to keep the
best interest of people first, the truth is, not
all health care providers are interested in
keeping people healthy. Just because you got the
degree, does not mean you should practice with
your degree. Just because you work in a hospital
does not mean that the health care providers care.

    duty to treat patients with a certain standard of
    care. Charlotte Medical Malpractice Attorney at

    trauma and pain that goes along with an injury
    due to medical malpractice. When someone goes
