What is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice, often called medical negligence, is the term used to describe a wrong committed by a doctor or other medical professional who caused them bodily harm. Medical negligence is much more than the physician or other health care provider making a simple mistake. Medical malpractice occurs when a health care provider improperly treats a patient or performs treatment in a negligent manner. Many times, a physician or hospital fails to use appropriate treatment methods or neglects the patient. The results of this inadequate and inappropriate care can cause significant permanent injuries and even death.
Common Examples of Medical Malpractice
Injuries commonly resulting from medical malpractice include the following:
Misdiagnosed cancer (lung cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer)
Failure to diagnose conditions, like heart conditions
Misread x-rays and pap smears
Emergency room error
Medication errors
Surgical errors
Anesthesia errors
Michigan Veterans Administration Hospitals
There are several Veterans Administration Hospitals (VA Hospitals) in Michigan. These include:
John Dingell Veterans Administration Hospital, Detroit, MI
VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System (VAAAHS)
Battle Creek VA Medical Center
VA Hospital, Allen Park, Michigan
Albert E. Lutz VA Medical Center, Saginaw, Michigan
Iron Mountain VA Medical Center, Iron Mountain, Michigan

The Rules for Veterans Administration Cases
The laws for filing Veterans Administration Hospital medical malpractice cases are different than typical medical malpractice cases against hospitals and doctors. To file a lawsuit against a VA Hospital or physician, the case must be filed under the Federal Tort Claims Act. This law has special requirements and provisions that must be met and the failure to satisfy these requirements may destroy your cases.
Therefore, if you suspect that Veterans Administration Hospital medical malpractice has occurred, you should call our office immediately. Our medical malpractice lawyers will start working on your case immediately, gathering the medical records and evidence to prove and win your case.

The insurance company refused to pay my benefits. Mr. Buckfire filed a lawsuit against them and made them pay every penny that they owed... Every time I see my doctor, I thank her again for the referral to Buckfire & Buckfire.

Because of his efforts, we proved that the other driver was at fault and the driver's insurance company paid a significant settlement for our injury claims... Hiring his firm to represent my son and myself was the best decision I could have possibly made. Many thanks for the great work.
