Many different specialties are involved in surgery besides the specialty of the doctor performing the surgery. There are anesthesiologists (control of anesthesia during surgery to prevent pain as well as coma or brain damage); infectious disease specialists; pathologists; and a variety of nurses as well as other medical professionals that perform diagnostic testing and lab work.
If you have been a victim of surgical malpractice, or you have a loved one who has been a victim of a surgical error, you should contact a surgical malpractice attorney as quickly as possible. Not only might you be entitled to a reimbursement of medical expenses, but also for compensation for future medical care, loss of income and pain and suffering. Surgical malpractice laws are in place to protect patients from poor care at the hands of trusted medical practitioners.
