Delayed Kidney Diagnosis
About the Group
Most cases of kidney failure are preventable or delayable if properly diagnosed and treated. However, failing to diagnose or treat kidney disease can lead to complete kidney failure and the need for a lifetime of prescription drugs, time-consuming kidney dialysis, one or more kidney transplant operations, and the premature death of the patient. Unfortunately, many times these cases are overlooked and turned down by lawyers who do not understand the medicine or potential causes of action. The Group educates AAJ members about the medicine and what to look for when evaluating a potential case.
Group History
