Can I file a medical malpractice claim against someone other than a doctor?

A: No matter what their specialty, any person or party that provides medical care to others can be held liable for malpractice when their negligence results in injury. If you were injured or lost a loved one due to the negligence of a medical professional you may want to consult with a Louisville medical malpractice lawyer about the possibility of filing a Kentucky medical malpractice claim.

Any time a medical procedure is performed on you, whether voluntarily or in an emergency, your caregiver is liable for your safety and health. If they are negligent in their duties to keep you safe from unnecessary harm, they may be held liable for their actions in a Kentucky medical malpractice claim.

An experienced Louisville medical malpractice lawyer can assist you in filing a Kentucky medical malpractice claim against any medical professional responsible for your injuries, including: 

• doctors;
• nurses;
• physical therapists;
• pharmacists;
• surgeons;
• dentists;
• chiropractors;
• dermatologists;
• OB/GYN; and
• any other liable hospital or medical staff. 

When your injury occurs at a hospital, your Louisville medical malpractice lawyer can also help you determine if a single person is responsible or if the hospital itself is to blame. In a complex Kentucky medical malpractice claim the negligence may have started in one department of the hospital and worked its way through multiple departments before harming you.
