QUESTION
How do I know if my doc did my surgery correctly?
Asked on May 12th, 2012 on Medical Malpractice - Connecticut
More details to this question:
I had rotator cuff surgery June 2011 and had to have it done again May 2012. My current doc showed me video of my surgery and explained that my last doc just left sutures "hanging". They either appeared to have never been knotted or incorrectly knotted. There are extenuatating circumstances too long to put in this email, but is this something I should be addressing legally?

If it was repaired in the second surgery, than it is probably not a financially viable case.
