Misdiagnoses (Late Diagnosis)

The failure to timely and reasonably diagnose a patient’s medical condition may result in a substantial delay in necessary treatment. The effect of an unreasonable delay in diagnosis and treatment may result in catastrophic injury or death. This circumstance is most tragic when timely intervention would probably have prevented the patient’s injury or death.
