Doctors have state-of-the-art tools at their disposal to identify and diagnose prostate cancer at an early stage. But too often, they either fail to order the appropriate tests, order a test but don’t read the results, or fail to interpret test results correctly. This sort of medical malpractice can have devastating effects. Instead of being diagnosed early, when treatment can work, cancerous tumors are allowed to grow and spread for months or even years.

According to the New York Law Journal, New York had the largest number of medical malpractice lawsuits filed in the country in the last decade, with almost 16,000 suits filed against healthcare professionals between 2012 and 2022. Doctors across the state routinely fail to provide adequate care for their patients by misinterpreting test results or failing to treat a patient properly.
The lawyers at the Porter Law Group have secured millions of dollars* for men whose prostate cancer diagnosis was delayed. We can recover compensation for you if your doctors:

• Failed to test prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in your blood
• Failed to properly read or interpret your PSA test results
• Failed to order other screening tests
• Failed to perform a digital rectal exam
• Failed to order MRI or transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging studies
• Failed to properly learn and respond to your pertinent family medical history
• Failed to order appropriate follow-up tests
• Failed to appropriately educate you about the risks of not being screened
