I read a story on reddit awhile ago where a woman said her husband talked to the doctor multiple times through the process not to give her one. The doctor did it anyways. She didn't find out until weeks later because everything was already in pain. It kept getting infected, didn't heal right, she can't have sex at all anymore. No lawyer will take her case because it's apparently too hard to prove it was done on purpose. That makes me very angry.
Not done on purpose? It being an accident is almost as bad. That's pretty much the definition of malpractice, isn't it?
Yeah idk. Lawyers only like to take those cases if it's a slam dunk.
