Medical malpractice Lawyers
Doctors, surgeons or any professionals in the medical field have a duty to treat their patients with care and expertise. There is a certain level of quality of care you can expect to receive when you go to the hospital or doctor’s office to receive treatment. All medical professionals have to provide you with at least this level of quality healthcare. Anything lower than this level would put a patient at risk.
In the legal world, we call this level the “standard of care.” We are here to help you if your health care provider gave you treatment that was lower than the standard of care.
Did you receive less than acceptable care?
If we look at Illinois Courts’ Jury Instruction Section 105 – Professional Negligence, medical professionals are held to “the same degree of knowledge, skill and ability as an ordinary professional would exercise under similar circumstances. This means that your doctor must provide you with the same care as any ‘ordinary’ doctor would give you.
