At Locks Law Firm, our New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia medical malpractice lawyers have extensive experience with misdiagnosis cases. In this clip, Donna talks about her husband who became paralyzed after being misdiagnosed by several doctors.
DONNA: My husband woke up with severe pain in his neck. Within a week I had taken him to three emergency rooms and his own family doctor and they all diagnosed him with neck strain, but never actually did an MRI or a CAT scan, so they all prescribed him pain medications, but the pain never really went away. It just, at the end he collapsed and became a quadriplegic.
I had spoke to several lawyers about what had happened to my husband and they said it would be a difficult case and one of them had referred me to Tom Gowen of the Locks Law Firm. Tom and his staff worked really hard to find the medical literature and the experts to prove our case that the doctors should have taken an MRI or a CAT scan so that he wouldn’t be disabled like he is today.
They made us really comfortable. They came out to our house because my husband was disabled, so we didn’t have to go into the office, so that was good for my husband. Locks Law Firm won our case with very good results and it’s really helpful for our family. I would refer other people to Locks Law Firm because they were very good with our case.
