How do I know if a doctor failed to diagnose me?

A doctor has a standard of care to meet while treating you. He or she may be held liable for a failure to diagnose cervical cancer if you are showing symptoms of the disease and he or she:

• Failed to read your medical history regarding cervical cancer in your family
• Neglected to perform a thorough pap exam
• Failed to order the right diagnostic test to determine the type of cancer you had
• Misread your Pap smear results

With any disease, early detection leads to a greater chance of survival when the disease is properly diagnosed and treated. When a misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose cervical cancer leads to a death in your family, our experienced attorneys can discuss whether pursing a wrongful death case is right for you.
