Maryland Heart Stent Medical Malpractice Case Takes Interesting Twist
The Baltimore Sun has done a first-rate job of covering the bizarre Maryland medical negligence case involving the implantation of "unnecessary" heart stents by Dr. Mark Midei at St. Josephs Hospital in Towson, Maryland. http://www.maryland-law.com/blog/baltimore-hospital-stent-investigation-amazing.cfm and http://www.maryland-law.com/blog/more-heart-stent-data-raises-more-questions.cfm andhttp://www.maryland-law.com/blog/unnecessary-heart-stent-letters-sent-to-585-patients-are-there-more.cfmToday's article concerns the machinations going on in the medical malpractice action that has been brought by victims. The victims have sued the hospital and the doctor. The doctor has in turn sued the hospital for fraud and efforts to ruin his reputation. The lawyers involved are all experienced counsel and it is highly unusual to see such a phenomenon.

Among the different types of personal injury claims, medical malpractice claims are among the most complex, difficult and expensive to pursue. While there may be some instances where an individual can represent themselves in simple automobile accident cases there is virtually no instance where an injured party can obtain fair compensation from medical negligence. This is because of a variety of factors. These include the necessity of obtaining expert testimony to support such a case, the sophistication of the individual or entity you are making such a claim against (you are after all suing a doctor for their medical treatment) and the effect such settlements or claims may have upon the doctor’s professional licensure.
