Some representative medical malpractice cases we have pursued in Oneida County include:

• A patient went to St. Elizabeth Medical Center for back surgery. Following surgery, this individual soon developed compartment syndrome in their lower extremity which medical staff failed to timely diagnose and treat. As a result, this person now has significant mobility issues. We helped this individual obtain a very favorable confidential settlement as a result of the malpractice.

• A patient went to a dermatologist because of a suspicious discoloration on her cheek. However, failure to diagnose and properly treat the condition resulted in the spreading of cancer. The patient then had to undergo extensive surgery at Faxton-St. Luke's Hospital in Utica, New York. We represented this patient who obtained a settlement from the negligent dermatologist.

• When a woman reported to Faxton-St. Luke's Healthcare with complaints of nausea, vomiting, fatigue and lethargy, the medical staff failed to timely diagnose meningitis, possibly due to understaffing in the emergency room. Because of a delay in necessary treatment due to the failure to diagnose their condition, the woman experienced significant injuries. We helped the woman obtain a confidential settlement from her health care providers.

• While she underwent treatment at St. Elizabeth Medical Center for a hernia repair, a woman's medical condition inexplicably worsened. The medical staff eventually diagnosed a perforated bowel. Due to the delay in diagnosis, this woman had to undergo seven surgeries, and she now suffers from permanent physical limitations. DeFrancisco & Falgiatano Personal Injury Lawyers helped her obtain a very fair settlement from the center.
