New Jersey Wrong Site Surgery Attorneys

Wrong site surgery is one of the most well known forms of medical malpractice. Simply put, it occurs when a surgeon operates on the wrong part of the body. Unsurprisingly, this can have a number of terrible consequences, including pain, suffering, and disfigurement. In addition to this, wrong site surgery fails to correct the medical condition that necessitated the surgery in the first place.

If you have been the victim of negligent surgical practices, you may be entitled to repayment for your pain, suffering, resultant medical bills, lost work, and other considerations. The New Jersey wrong site surgery lawyers of Levinson Axelrod may be able to help. Contact us today by calling 800-346-5529.

Surgical Errors

We like to think that surgeons are practiced and knowledgeable enough to avoid mistakes. Sadly, this may not always be the case. Even the most experienced surgeons can make mistakes. Some of the most common wrong site surgery errors are:

  • Amputating the wrong limb
  • Operating on the wrong eye
  • Removing the wrong kidney
  • Incorrectly placing an incision
  • Performing surgery on the wrong side of the body

Operating on the wrong part of the body can have a wide range of negative side effects, from physical disfigurement to medical side effects and more. If you or a member of your family has been the victim of such an egregious error, our New Jersey wrong site surgery lawyers firmly believe that you deserve full compensation. We are ready to fight for you.
