Misdiagnosis

North Carolina Cancer Misdiagnosis Lawyer

Sadly, too many women and men are learning of a cancer diagnosis after the disease has developed into later, untreatable stages. If you or a family member has been a victim of cancer misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, the Law Offices of J. Neal Rodgers can help.

Delayed Cancer Diagnosis

Yes, there are instances in which the cancer could not have been detected earlier. However, there are many occasions in which a doctor should have recognized and diagnosed the problem or suspected there was reason to refer to a specialist. Cancer misdiagnosis attorney J. Neal Rodgers pursues accountability and liability for this medical malpractice.

Negligent cancer misdiagnosis may include:

  • Improper identification of a tumor as non-cancerous
  • Improper interpretation of specimen testing
  • Improper labeling or handling of biopsy specimen
  • Improper classification of a cancerous tumor
  • Failure to routinely check at risk patients
  • Failure to review family medical history when considering symptoms
  • Failure to refer to specialist when necessary
