Recommendations for medical malpractice lawyers (NC)
Hello, I’m in a situation I never thought my family would find itself in….My wife had to have breast reduction surgery in order to alleviate horrible back pain. Immediately after the surgery, the same day….she began having complications regarding circulation in her nipples which led to tissue dying and her getting a horrible infection in her breast requiring her to stay in the hospital for almost two weeks. The original surgeon kept telling her everything looked good, when clearly you could see the dead tissue and infection in the beginning stages. It turns out the original surgeon was trying to conceal the fact that he had stitched her up too tight, cutting off the circulation…we discovered this going to a second hospital where a second surgeon thankfully admitted her. They immediately gave her antibiotics during her long stay in the hospital and then performed a second surgery to repair and remove the dead tissue caused by the first surgeon. We now find ourselves with extra medical bills due to the first surgeon’s negligence…that has been documented and supported by the second surgeon. We have never been through something like this before and are looking for recommendations from people that have found themselves in similar medical procedures gone wrong situations. Any recommendations for local lawyers that specialize in this type of law is greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance.
