Obstetric and High-Risk Pregnancy Complications
The hospital’s high-risk obstetrics program, while specialized, presents significant malpractice risks including failure to properly monitor fetal distress, delayed cesarean sections, medication errors during labor, inadequate management of pregnancy complications, and birth injuries resulting from improper delivery techniques. Communication failures between obstetric teams can result in preventable adverse outcomes.
Neuroscience and Stroke Treatment Errors
Despite specialized stroke certification, the neuroscience department faces risks of misdiagnosis, delayed treatment administration, inadequate neurological monitoring, surgical errors during brain procedures, and failure to recognize deteriorating neurological conditions. The complexity of neurological cases requires precise timing and expert judgment.


Surgical Complications
Advanced surgical procedures carry risks of wrong-site surgery, anesthesia complications, inadequate pre-operative assessment, post-operative infection due to poor sterile technique, and failure to obtain proper informed consent. The hospital’s use of cutting-edge surgical technology requires proper training and maintenance protocols.
Cancer Treatment Malpractice
The comprehensive cancer center presents risks related to chemotherapy errors, radiation therapy miscalculations, delayed cancer diagnosis, inadequate cancer staging, failure to discuss treatment alternatives, and insufficient monitoring of treatment side effects. Oncology cases require careful coordination between multiple specialists.
Emergency Department Negligence
Emergency department malpractice may involve misdiagnosis of cardiac conditions despite STEMI certification, failure to properly triage stroke patients, medication errors in emergency situations, inadequate diagnostic testing, and discharge of patients with undiagnosed serious conditions.
