Medical Malpractice

What if I'm just not satisfied with the results of my surgery? Do I have a malpractice case?

In general, there are no guarantees of favorable medical results. In order to prevail in a medical malpractice case, you would have to show an injury or damages that resulted from the doctor's deviation from the appropriate standard of care for your condition.
