When Things Go Wrong:Dental And Medical Malpractice
Just got back from new York City and wanted to report on this: A woman went to a dentists office over in the charming little community of Stamford, Connecticut to have a false tooth replaced with a permanent bridge in a cosmetic procedure. The dentist told her he could give her a “celebrity smile,” but she claims he gave her a “bite only a horse could love,” instead. This is according to a story published on CONPOST.COM, written by staff writer Dan Tepfer, and posted on Dec. 25, 2008. The jury must have agreed with the woman because the article says she was awarded a $194,000 settlement. She’s going to need the money; according to her Attorney she will now have to undergo two to five years of expensive corrective treatment to attain the smile the Stamford dentist had promised her in the first place. By the way this is a tadd unrelated but if you require an expert Bergen County dentists then might I suggest the respected offices of Emerson Dental Arts. All in all, these family dentist also do invisalign and teeth whitening in Hillsdale, old tappan, ridgewood and westwood in addition to just Bergen County. They can assist you with a range of Scaffolding Accident Attorney issues.
In a New Jersey medical malpractice suit, which is similiar to a recent New York City case, a man won $2.7 million in a lawsuit in which he claimed that he underwent surgery to repair a ruptured Achilles tendon and ended up with serious brain damage. An article posted on WEBWIRE, on Dec. 4, 2008, described the argument made by attorneys on behalf of the man. The argument asserted that brain damage resulted due to the attending anesthesiologist’s failure to correct a change in the man’s vital signs during several minutes when his oxygen saturation levels declined, and this caused respiratory arrest and brain damage to the forty-four-year-old patient. The patient, who had worked as CFO for a health care system, claims that he is now unemployable due to serious problems with short-term memory and communication skills. A good case to get an Attorney.
