Suffolk County Surgical Errors Lawyers

Nassau County Surgery Negligence Attorneys

One of the most common causes of medical malpractice claims is surgical errors. While any surgery entails a certain amount of risk, there are certain errors that can and should be avoided by medical professionals.

If you or a loved one has been injured due to a surgical error, contact an experienced medical malpractice lawyer at Rappaport Glass Greene & Levine. We represent clients throughout New York in a wide range of medical malpractice claims, including surgical negligence claims. Examples of surgical negligence include:

  • Operating on the wrong body part
  • Anesthesia errors
  • Leaving instruments and equipment in patients
  • Negligent performance of surgical procedures (e.g., cutting a major artery)
  • Failure to take proper precautions before, during or after surgery
  • Other doctor, nurse or medical staff negligence

Surgical errors can occur with any type of surgery, including cataract surgery, gallbladder surgery, hernia repair, coronary artery bypass procedures, spine surgery, lumbar disk surgery, knee replacement, hip replacement, colon surgery and gastric bypass surgery.

If you have been injured as a result of a surgery, it can be difficult to know if your injuries were caused by medical negligence. Since our attorneys have decades of experience handling medical malpractice claims, we can review the facts of your case and provide a candid assessment of your case.

Client Testimonials

  • "Frankie can complete his education, I can give the girls a start in life and I can live my life with dignity and comfort. We are grateful for all those things, but most of all, for your kindness and caring."
  • "Just wanted to thank you for all you've done and continue to do. I learned a lot watching you perform at trial. I feel satisfied and vindicated."
  • "When nobody believed me, you did. When the other lawyer told my parents to settle, you supported me and convinced them to fight. When we won, I cried. I will never forget you."
  • "Everyone told me it was hopeless. You told me the only thing you could promise me was that I would get my day in Court. You kept your promise. God bless you for what you did for our family."
  • "I don't know what I would have done without you. You will always be in my prayers."
  • "I never saw anyone work as hard as you did for us. When the judge told us he hoped we appreciated what you did, I didn't say anything because I was choked up. I want you to know that we do. When people say that lawyers don't care, I tell them about you. Thank you for everything."
  • "When our daughter died we were devastated. Your kindness, understanding and support helped us through the most difficult time in our lives. For that we are eternally grateful."
