Heart Attack
Every year, thousands of people are evaluated and treated for heart attack symptoms. When patients are discharged from hospitals or emergency rooms without proper diagnosis, they might suffer permanent repercussions, including death.
Many heart attacks can be prevented or better controlled with proper and timely medical intervention. At PLP, we handle cases where medical providers have failed to use the proper diagnostic tests or have misread or ignored test results, leading to the patient suffering a heart attack. We have also handled cases where emergency room physicians misdiagnosed heart problems and released patients who then suffered heart attacks.
When patients are allowed to go home with undiagnosed heart attacks, the results are often tragic. Symptoms of heart attacks are common, and medical professionals need to address them in a responsible manner, consistent with the proper standard of care. When they don't, you or someone you love could suffer the consequences.
