Failure to Diagnose Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer, more than most cancers, can be treated and cured if diagnosed early. Unfortunately, negligent screening can result in late diagnosis, which can be fatal to patients. If you or someone you love was diagnosed with cervical cancer, it is important to ask the right questions and, if necessary, pursue claims against negligent doctors. At Hal Waldman & Associates in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, our attorneys are experienced in the investigation and pursuit of medical malpractice claims against doctors, hospitals and other negligent professionals in cervical cancer cases.
Cervical Cancer Screening and Diagnosis
Errors and negligence during the processing and interpretation of Pap smears can result in delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Even if a Pap smear is properly administered, the results could be misinterpreted at the lab. Any delayed diagnosis can severely impede treatment, especially if the patient suffers from an advanced form of cervical cancer.
