Justice in Biloxi.: Anatomy of a malpractice case A Novella (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798796401491)

A woman undergoes an operation for a small belly button hernia. . She ends up with severe brain damage. How and why did it happen? Could it have been prevented? Was it a "natural" complication inherent to such procedure ("shit happens")? Or was the surgeon negligent ("shit should not have happened")? Should the surgeon be sued? Shouldn't the harmed patient be compensated?

The author-a veteran general surgeon and an experienced expert witness-analyses the case in details, against the general background of medical malpractice litigations.

The book would be of interest to all parties involved in the drama of medical malpractice litigations: physicians, lawyers and especially potential plaintiffs-harmed patients who want to observe what takes place at the backstage of the theater.

So come and watch the legal play, meet all the actors: the plaintiff-harmed patient, the defendant-surgeon, the lawyers, the expert witnesses on both sides of the isle, and the Judge. Listen to the pre-trial depositions; attend the trial in Biloxi.

Will justice prevail?
