California Surgical Mistakes/Errors Attorneys

Surgical Mistakes Attorneys in California

Surgical errors are often referred to as "wrong-site surgeries," in which the surgery is done on the incorrect part of the body. Cases of such surgeries are thought to be on the rise in America. Such incidents are notoriously under-reported so it is unclear if doctors are really making more mistakes or simply reporting more.

The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgery recommended that members initial the correct spot before surgery. However, this simple act by itself is not expected to eliminate many errors.
