When we undergo surgery or receive medication, we trust our healthcare providers to administer them safely. But even small errors in dosage, timing, or communication can lead to devastating consequences. At Leitner Warywoda, our team represents victims across New York City and Long Island who have been seriously injured due to anesthesia errors, medication mix-ups, and pharmaceutical negligence. If you've suffered because of a preventable mistake, we’re ready to help you pursue the justice you deserve.

​

Common Causes of Anesthesia and Drug-Related Injuries

 

Misdiagnoses often result from a breakdown in communication or care: a primary doctor failing to refer a patient to a specialist, a radiologist misreading a scan, or a lab technician mixing up biopsy results. Commonly missed cancers include breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, and skin cancer. We’ve seen these mistakes occur everywhere from overburdened city hospitals in Manhattan and the Bronx to smaller outpatient clinics across Nassau and Suffolk Counties.

​

Building a Strong Case for Medical Malpractice

 

To succeed in a malpractice claim involving drugs or anesthesia, our legal team must prove that a qualified provider would have acted differently under the same circumstances. We work closely with anesthesiologists, pharmacologists, and internal medicine experts to pinpoint exactly where the standard of care was breached. Then, we pursue compensation for hospitalization, long-term care, lost wages, and emotional suffering caused by the medical error.
