"Minimal mistakes" rarely lead to successful malpractice suits. It is usually a major mistake or a series of mistakes that lead to permanent harm to the patient. In this case, the standard of care would be met simply by following up to be sure that the lesion resolved. by Liliya Besedina | January 12, 2011 6:45 PM EST scc Article Comment Pages: 1 2 3 4 Previous Next |
