How do I know if a doctor(s) is guilty of medical negligence?

It is difficult to say whether the repetitive insertion of the tube was negligent. If the tube was removed initially because the doctors expected that it was no longer necessary, to know whether the choice was below accepted standards of care you would have to look at the records to determine what was influencing the doctors' decision making process.  Assuming this leaves no permanent problem, however, even if the care was negligent, you will not have a financially viable malpractice case. The articles linked below explain this in more detail.  Click here for an article that discusses the three main questions I ask when deciding whether to investigate a potential medical malpractice case.
