Emergency Room Errors

Lawyer Helping Victims of Emergency Room Errors in St. Louis

People seek medical attention from emergency rooms when they cannot wait for a doctor's appointment. They require immediate care, and they are often in a lot of pain or experiencing a frightening physical problem. What happens, though, when their concerns are not taken seriously or they do not receive the standard of care? Emergency room errors can result in serious injury, illnesses and even death. Our St. Louis, Missouri law firm protects the rights of patients who have been injured while in the care of emergency room staff.

If you or your loved one has been injured because of an emergency room error, please call The Law Offices of Gretchen Myers, P.C. at 314-732-4076 to arrange your free initial consultation. If you are outside the St. Louis, Missouri calling area, call us toll-free at 888-789-2184. You may also email us and someone from the firm will be in touch with you within 24 hours.

We accept emergency room error cases on a contingency fee basis. You pay no attorneys fees unless we obtain a settlement or jury award on your behalf.

If an emergency room error harmed you or your loved one, I can help.

There are many factors that can lead to emergency room errors. The hospital may be understaffed, the emergency room may be poorly equipped, or a communication error may have resulted in improper treatment. As your attorney, Gretchen investigates the actions of the hospital and staff. She strives to obtain a full understanding of how the negligence occurred and who is responsible. She also gains a complete picture of how the injury or death has impacted your life and demand full compensation for your losses.

In partnership with my hospital negligence practice, Gretchen handles claims arising from errors such as the following:

  • Failure to diagnose illnesses and medical conditions
  • Failure to diagnose heart attack
  • Failure to diagnose stroke, resulting in brain injury
  • Failure to properly set broken bones
  • Medication errors
  • Prescription errors
  • Infections
  • Omissions

As an experienced trial attorney, Gretchen prepares all cases as if they are going to trial. In doing so, she is able to secure maximum compensation for your loss.
