I need a good medical malpractice attorney in Phoenix.?
I had bloodwork done in December of '06. My TSH (thyroid) was so out of whack I could have died. I discovered this when I went for pre-op testing recently. My thyroid was even worse and surgery had to be canceled. When talking to my family doc as to why I wasn't contacted in December, he said, "I figured you'd be in eventually and we talk about it then." Do I have a case?

- If I give you an answer will you sue me? Go to a phone book look up lawyer and ask them
- First you have to prove negligence. You are 50% to blame for not following up to see the results. Next, you have to suffer due to the negligence . Furthermore, you have to prove that the few months delay was detrimental to the final outcome (i.e. any difference if it was treated in December vs. today). Of course this is a weak case so an attorney will probably not take your case on a contingency case thus you will have to have a lot of money upfront. You will have to be prepared to fight this out in court for 3-5 years. I doubt you will win your case but attorneys will sure take your money to promote your cause. GOOD LUCK!
