What Counts as Medical Malpractice in Washington?Simply put, medical malpractice happens when a doctor, nurse, or other healthcare worker makes a mistake that hurts you because they weren't being as careful as they should have been. Maybe they missed something important on your test results, gave you the wrong medicine, or made a mistake during surgery.
Most Common Medical Mistakes We SeeWe've helped many people in Washington who've been hurt by:
- Surgery gone wrong (like operating on the wrong body part or leaving tools inside)
- Getting the wrong medicine or wrong dose
- Doctors missing serious health problems or taking too long to figure them out
- Babies getting hurt during birth
- Problems with anesthesia during surgery
- Emergency room mistakes
- Getting infections in the hospital that could have been prevented
- Doctors not telling patients about important risks before treatment
If you've been treated at any of these local hospitals and experienced problems, we can help:
- MultiCare Auburn Medical Center - where many local residents go for emergency care
- Valley Medical Center - serving our community for decades
- St. Francis Hospital - known for various specialties
When you come to us, we don't just take your word or the hospital's word for what happened. We bring in independent doctors from different specialties to look at every detail of your medical records. Sometimes it takes three or four different experts to understand exactly what went wrong. We do this because we know hospitals rarely admit mistakes unless faced with solid evidence.
Working with Medical ExpertsMedical malpractice cases are tricky because you need to prove both that someone made a mistake AND that the mistake caused your problems. That's why we work with some of the best medical experts who can:
- Go through every page of your medical records
- Point out exactly where things went wrong
- Explain to a jury what should have happened instead
- Show how the mistake led to your injuries
At Moseley Collins Law, we:
- Talk to you for free about what happened
- Help point you in the right direction even if we can't take your case
