Oklahoma City Surgical Errors Attorney
Put Decades of Experience in Your Corner
A surgical error may be defined as any failure on the part of a surgeon or any medical professional involved in a surgery to provide medical treatment in accordance with accepted standards. Any deviation from standard medical treatment may be considered surgical malpractice if it occurs before, during or after surgery.
While there is some amount of risk associated with any surgical procedure and it is true that not every injury sustained during surgery occurs due to malpractice or negligence, there are particular situations where surgical injuries could have been prevented if the medical professional had provided proper care.
