Knowing When Your Doctor Is at Fault
Medical negligence can be tricky because there are some situations that even the best doctors would not be able to resolve. For this reason, Arizona has developed a standard for determining when a doctor’s carelessness was the direct cause of your baby’s harm.
In general, a doctor commits medical malpractice in Arizona when their patient suffers an injury or death because the doctor failed to provide an appropriate level of care or treatment. You are required to prove that the doctor failed to provide the same level of treatment that other doctors with similar training and experience would have provided when dealing with the patient, according to Arizona Revised Statutes §12-563. In other words, you must show that the doctor’s care fell below the expectations of the medical community.
Medical conditions can be incredibly complex, and there may be multiple conditions or factors involved in a single case. For this reason, it is necessary to work with medical experts to establish that the doctor who treated your newborn failed to provide the appropriate level of care.
