Everyday, Americans put their lives and their trust in doctors and, the majority of the time, doctors provide quality and needed care.  However, when doctors and other healthcare professionals take this trust for granted, mistakes can and do happen. Unfortunately, medical mistakes can have devastating effects—physical, emotional, and financial—for the patient and the patient's family.
