Fraudulent Medical Reports

Sometimes medical procedures are not successful. This is an unfortunate fact that must be accepted by any patient planning to undergo surgery or any other type of procedure in hopes of solving a health problem. Unfortunately, there have been cases where the medical professional in charge of an operation does not disclose the truth about the results, and then alters the related documents to make the procedure appear successful. If the patient is fortunate enough to discover the truth about his condition, he may be able to receive compensation through the filing of a medical malpractice lawsuit.

No patient deserves to be intentionally deceived by their doctor. If you believe you have been the victim of negligent or fraudulent behavior by a medical professional, contact the Philadelphia medical malpractice attorneys of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C. at 215-238-1130 to discuss the facts of your case.

Dangers of Incorrect Medical Reports

If a doctor knowingly puts incorrect information into a patient’s file, the consequences can be very serious. That individual’s future physicians will have no way of knowing the truth about his medical history, and may make incorrect diagnoses or dangerous prescriptions in the future. Furthermore, if an unsuccessful procedure was meant to remove a tumor or cancerous growth and it is not successful, the patient may not pursue additional treatment that could potentially save his life.
