How to decide if we should sue my daughter's oral surgeon?
Question Details: She got her wisdom teeth out and the oral surgeon dislocated her jaw while doing it. Now she has TMJ because of it. For almost a year now she's been in therapy and it still hasn't gotten better; she's still in exruciating pain. The surgeon was very mean and rude to my daughter; she told her to shut up and stop being a cry baby the entire time of the surgery. My husband and I are trying to decide if we should sue the surgeon.
Please go and speak with a medical malrpactice attorney in your area. Look on this site for a referral. The consultation should not cost you a dime and they will look in to the issue of malpractice and negligence. Her mental anguish alone is enough to cause inquiry. I think that you may have a case here. Good luck.
