Failure To Diagnose Breast Cancer

Massachusetts Failure To Diagnose Breast Cancer Attorneys

This year, the American Cancer Society estimates that over 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Although death rates from breast cancer have been declining for many years, nearly 40,000 women die from the disease every year. Early detection and treatment is key to surviving breast cancer.

Survival rates for breast cancer detected in its earliest stage is over 90%, but the survival rate decline quickly the longer the breast cancer goes undetected. Unfortunately, many breast cancer deaths could have been prevented if they had been detected earlier. If your physician fails to properly detect your breast cancer, the results can be devastating.

Most doctor's offices are busy places. You have probably experienced the frustration of waiting for hours for your doctor to see you, only to have the doctor rush through the exam and quickly move on to the next patient. Doctors try to help as many people as possible, but sometimes in their haste they make mistakes.

Some of the most common reasons for failure to diagnose breast cancer include relying too heavily on a woman's age as a predictor of breast cancer, discounting a woman's symptoms, and too much reliance on negative mammograms even when a woman reports feeling a lump. Whatever the reason, when your physician fails to take your symptoms seriously and delays the diagnosis of your breast cancer, your health and life are in the balance.
