Many people may be misdiagnosed by their doctor, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that the doctor can be sued as a result. As long as a physician took the proper steps throughout the diagnosis process and reached a reasonable conclusion with the information provided to them, they may be protected from a malpractice lawsuit. This is because medical malpractice lawsuits can only be filed when a doctor has failed to uphold the medical profession’s standards of care. Reasonable errors, as harmful as they may be, may be protected from a medical malpractice claim.
