I navigated to the Morgan and Morgan websites in hopes of finding the list of negligent hospitals and doctors. No luck. There were a few medical malpractice lawsuits and a few doctor names mentioned, but none are local or all that new. Just the big cases. There is an informational area that tells you when it might be a good idea to sue the heath care industry, but I didn't see a list of people and places to avoid.
I know, even most of you are cynical about lawyers (and I'm supposed to the cynical one). But just like I'd appreciate a list of roads to never drive on from a DOT worker, I'd also like a list of medical practitioners to avoid from a medical malpractice attorney. Not that I'd publish it on the website. Just so I know and can plan my next injury accordingly.
We're still trying to get a feel for the medical field in the area ourselves. We've had a lot of canceled appointments and a few overcharges in a little over a year in the metro. I can't say there are any doctors or hospitals I would steer anyone away from, but I have yet to meet anyone or gone anyplace that has deserved a five-star review. Mostly, I'd really like to know if any of our current doctors are on John's list of doctors to avoid.
I saw that a doctor recently filed a lawsuit against a former patient who gave him or her a one-star rating on Google with a detailed review of why the doctor was awful. That's dangerous ground if we take away our free speech to protect doctors. Then again, I've avoided restaurants because of a single bad review that could have been left by a disgruntled former employee. I'm sure even Morgan and Morgan don't want the heat of releasing a comprehensive list of doctors and hospitals to avoid, so I'll probably never get what I really want from the law firm.
I hope I don't ever have to call Morgan and Morgan after I've visited the wrong doctor or hospital. The best tools I have right now are the online reviews, so I guess I'll at least read those in the hopes people generally honest, whether they are old or not.
