Failure to Order Appropriate Follow-up after Abnormality Noted on a Mammogram - Settlement $750,000

Attorney - Carol Forte
Winter 2006

Carol Forte represented a woman whose mammogram was read as abnormal. Despite the presence of abnormalities that required follow-up, the treating physician told the woman that her mammogram was normal, and he failed to order appropriate follow-up studies and treatment. This resulted in a failure to timely diagnose the cancer. The delay in diagnosis allowed for a progression of the disease process and a worsened prognosis.
