Late and Misdiagnosed Cancer Lawyers in Staten Island

Cancer Misdiagnosis

Cancer misdiagnosis occurs when a healthcare provider incorrectly identifies a patient's condition, either diagnosing cancer when it's not present or failing to diagnose existing cancer. This error can lead to unnecessary treatments or delayed care, significantly impacting a patient's prognosis and quality of life.

Late Cancer Diagnosis

A late cancer diagnosis happens when there's a significant delay in identifying cancer, often resulting in the disease progressing to a more advanced stage. This delay can reduce treatment options, lower survival rates, and necessitate more aggressive therapies, causing additional physical and emotional distress for patients.

Missed Cancer Diagnosis

A missed cancer diagnosis occurs when healthcare providers fail to recognize cancer symptoms or misinterpret test results, leaving the disease undetected. This oversight can allow cancer to spread unchecked, potentially reaching an incurable stage and dramatically reducing the patient's chances of survival.

At the Porter Law Group, we understand the devastating impact of cancer misdiagnosis, late diagnosis, and missed diagnosis. Our experienced attorneys are committed to helping patients and families affected by these errors seek justice and compensation. We handle cases involving various types of cancer, including:
