Dear Myron,
I am sorry that you are having issues walking and you PCP is not helping you. Based only upon this information, it is not possible for me to answer this question other than to suggest that you consult a Medical Malpractice attorney. The attorney will need more information, and will need to consider what effect any medical error has had on what the likely outcome would have been in the absence of the error. A Medical Malpractice Attorney can explore these issues with you and review records prior to potentially sending them out for review by appropriate medical experts free of charge to you. There are often many stages to this inquiry. Ultimately, the answer to your question will depend upon medical expert review of all relevant records to determine whether the standard of care was breached and if that breach directly caused or contributed to causing you serious and permanent injuries. We give free consultations and if we take the case, it would be on a contingent fee basis. These are most often very tough cases with time constraints and pre-suit requirements. Start this process with a free consultation by a Medical Malpractice lawyer. Providing the necessary medical records may help speed up the process for the reviewing attorney. Better sooner rather than later to see if you have a viable case. Furthermore, the Statute of Limitation for bringing a complex Medical Malpractice lawsuit is relatively short.
