[GRAPHIC: An Overview of Texas Medical Malpractice]
RANDALL O. SORRELS: Each year, there are over 100,000 unnecessary injuries and deaths as a result of medical mishaps. Our law firm has spent over a half a century evaluating and helping the victims of medical malpractice. We take these cases very seriously, employing doctors, nurses, experts, and damage experts, who will help prepare and try a medical malpractice case.
[GRAPHIC: Mistakes Occur Throughout Hospitals]
RANDALL O. SORRELS: We believe that the medical providers on the whole do a pretty good job. But there are mistakes that occur, starting in the emergency room with misdiagnosis, starting in the surgical area with the failure to do surgery properly or leaving pieces inside a person's body, in the obstetrics area with bad births that should've been prevented, in the office practice failing to diagnose.
[GRAPHIC: Hospitals Can And Do Cut Corners]
RANDALL O. SORRELS: Today, we see the price of medicine going up but the quality of care going down. Hospitals are one of the big reasons, seeking to increase their profit levels but at the expense of the injured patient. We at Abraham Watkins focus on the hospital's rules, regulations, the national standards to hold those hospitals accountable for their medical misdeeds.
[GRAPHIC: Holding Doctors Accountable]
RANDALL O. SORRELS: We recognize that doctors are human beings and make mistakes. We also recognize that they should not be given a free pass for their mistakes, especially when those mistakes cause damages and injuries to the human body. Doctors in hospitals should be held accountable through their insurance companies, through trials to compensate a victim who has been injured as a result of that medical negligence.
