$2.15 Million resolution for Elderly Man in suburban Medical Malpractice Case

09/29/2016 | Medical Malpractice

$2.15 Million resolution for Elderly Man in suburban Medical Malpractice Case

Arthur, a 68-year-old man, was admitted to a Chicago Suburban Hospital in 2013 for prostate surgery. After his surgery, Arthur’s nurses and one of his surgeons negligently failed to diagnose an arterial blood clot in his left leg. Once his doctor suspected he was suffering from a blood clot, the hospital radiology department did not complete ultrasound testing in a timely manner. Emergency surgery was performed to restore proper blood flow, but his leg had to be amputated below the knee two weeks later.

Attorneys Peter Flowers and Craig Brown handled the case for the firm and were able to finalize the resolution with the hospital and the surgeon shortly before the trial was scheduled to begin.

Mr. Flowers and Mr. Brown are continuing to litigate negligence claims against another defendant physician who failed to order a consultation by a vascular surgeon and failed to make sure the ultrasound was done on an emergent basis. They expect this claim to proceed to trial later this fall.

Medical malpractice lawsuits are complex, time-consuming and costly to pursue, find out how Meyers & Flowers can help you or your family by contacting us at [email protected], at (630) 232-6333 or find more information here.
