Failure to Diagnose a Heart Attack

Serving Dallas and North Texas

Have you or a loved one suffered needlessly because an emergency room doctor failed to diagnose your heart attack?

A heart attack is an event that requires immediate attention and quick-thinking medical professionals. Time is of the essence, and treatment decisions need to be made right away. When a doctor fails to correctly diagnose a heart attack, your life is in danger.

Emergency physicians are trained to identify signs of a heart attack and administer proper care. When they miss these signs, the results are often devastating. Why wasn't the medical team equipped to spot these signs? Maybe the physician was overworked, fatigued, and unable to process the details the way he/she should have. Maybe certain key warning signs were overlooked, or the patient wasn't given a thorough evaluation to begin with. Whatever the cause of a delayed or misdiagnosis, you deserve to find out why the heart attack was missed.
