Misdiagnosis Lawsuits Raise Questions In Kansas City; Has Your Child Been Diagnosed With Epilepsy? You May Want A Second Opinion

in Medical Malpractice

Your child’s continuing health is one of your biggest concerns.  The last thing you should be worried about is whether or not your child’s doctor is being honest with you, especially when they have diagnosed your child with a serious disease or disorder.

Parents in Detroit, Michigan are unfortunately facing that exact situation.  A doctor at Oakwood Hospital in Detroit is being sued for allegedly misdiagnosing hundreds of children with neurological disorders, mainly epilepsy.  The lawsuit claims the doctor did it strictly for financial gain.  In addition to Dr. Yasser Awaad the lawsuit also names Oakwood Hospital as a defendant for not properly supervising the doctor, who prescribed medication for the children that made them weak and affected memory as well as performed unnecessary surgeries to implant seizure preventing devices in the children’s brains.

What diseases are most often misdiagnosed in Kansas City?

In Kansas and Missouri as well as across the United States injuries and accidents come in many forms.  Thinking your Doctor might be lying to you is the last thing you’d expect from someone you are supposed to trust.
