Gastric Bypass Surgery Errors

Gastric Bypass Surgery Errors Lawyer

Contact a Medical Malpractice Firm That Has Achieved Multiple Eight-Figure Settlements

Many people struggling with weight issues avoid the benefits of gastric bypass surgery due to the risks that it involves. This hesitancy is understandable because medical malpractice and negligence have led to a disproportionate number of gastric-bypass-surgery-related injuries and wrongful death. Common medical errors committed in gastric bypass surgery procedures include:

  • Improper and incomplete post-operative care, including care occurring both in the hospital and following discharge from the hospital
  • Surgical errors leading to uncontrolled bleeding
  • The failure to remove all surgical instruments from the body
  • Basic errors committed by rural and small-town care facilities that are not equipped to handle surgical complications
  • Improper screening of patients
