Medical Malpractice Attorney in Panama City

A medical malpractice claim generally requires proving the following elements:

• A doctor-patient relationship: If a doctor agrees to review your medical history, conduct an examination, and provide you with a diagnosis or treatment, in most circumstances this is considered a doctor-patient relationship.
• Your doctor behaved negligently: Sometimes, even when all of the rules are followed, accidents happen and no one is at fault. In many other cases, however, injuries are caused by the negligence of your medical provider—this simply means that they failed to care for you and act as competently as they should have.
• The doctor’s negligence caused your injury: This means that the injury you are seeking benefits for was caused by the doctor’s negligence, and not by some other activity or event. 

If you find yourself injured, and you believe that the injury was caused by the negligence of a doctor you trusted, you should contact an attorney immediately to find out if you have a valid claim.
