Understanding Medical Malpractice in South Pasadena
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to meet the standard of care expected in their profession, resulting in injury or harm to a patient. In South Pasadena—a city of approximately 25,619 residents with a diverse population including 49.1% White, 25.2% Asian, and 20.5% Hispanic or Latino individuals—residents rely on local clinics, hospitals, and specialists for their healthcare needs. When that trust is broken due to negligence, the consequences can be devastating.
Common Types of Medical Malpractice Cases
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Surgical errors
- Medication errors
- Birth injuries
