As a matter effect, the worst medical specialties with the highest malpractice rates are oncology, pulmonary medicine, urology, obstetrics and gynecology, gastroenterology, plastic surgery, orthopedic surgery, general surgery, thoracic-cardiovascular surgery, and neurosurgery. Although these are among the most important professions in the medical field that save the most lives, it turns out that they make the most mistakes or they are being blamed for making mistakes. Did they deserve it or not, we would never know. Like some of them have enough power to cover the trails of their faults, some people also have enough power to make up the evidence and get the law on their sides. But, there is even a bigger issue that comes up when it comes to bringing physicians to the justice. When it comes to this field, the judge and the jury aren’t enough to get to the final decision. Insidermonkey experts made a list of most common causes of malpractice suits against physicians.
According to the Medical Malpractice Center, the medical negligence is the 3rd cause of death in the US and, as a result, there are between 80,000 and 100,000 deaths on an annual basis in the US only caused by the misdiagnosis, and 195,000 deaths overall caused by other mistakes made by physicians. Although in each profession people make mistakes, there are some, like the ones in the medical field that can cost some people lives. Their job is to fight death, not to cause them. Unfortunately, sometimes not just that they lost the battle, but they also help their opponent win it. Sometimes, families of these patients or the patients that suffered some serious consequences after some treatment notice that the problem wasn’t in them, but the mistake made by the person that was supposed to help them heal.
