Late and Misdiagnosed Cancer Lawyers in Manhattan

Cancer Misdiagnosis

Cancer misdiagnosis occurs when a doctor incorrectly diagnoses a patient with a different condition when they actually have cancer. This critical error can lead to delayed treatment and potentially harmful interventions for a condition the patient doesn't have. In Manhattan's top-tier medical facilities, cancer misdiagnosis can happen due to misinterpreted test results or overlooked symptoms.

Late Cancer Diagnosis

A late cancer diagnosis can significantly reduce a patient's chances of survival. Different types of cancer have varying survival rates, and late detection often means the disease has progressed to more advanced stages. This progression may necessitate more aggressive treatments, as therapies effective in early stages might no longer be viable when cancer has metastasized.

Missed Cancer Diagnosis

A missed cancer diagnosis is a severe error that leaves a patient unaware as the disease progresses unchecked. When doctors dismiss concerning symptoms as benign, the consequences can be life-threatening. Valuable treatment time is lost, and the shock of a sudden diagnosis when symptoms finally become undeniable can cause significant emotional trauma, in addition to physical suffering and reduced survival chances.

Our experienced medical malpractice lawyers are well equipped to handle all types of cancer-related medical malpractice cases, including medical malpractice for the involving cancers:
