Medical Malpractice Defense Attorneys in Polk County
The Polk County malpractice lawyers at Frost Van den Boom & Smith, P.A., represent individuals who have died or suffered extensive injuries resulting from negligence of a hospital, physician, nurse practitioner, or other health care provider. Medical professionals have a duty to provide care that meets acceptable standards in their field. When the level of care falls below these standards and causes injury or death, a lawsuit may be warranted.

Catastrophic injuries or death may arise from a number of a medical professional's negligent behavior, including the following:
- Failure to properly diagnose diseases such as cancer
- Unnecessary delay of treatment
- Failure to refer patients to appropriate medical specialists

- Patients who are sent home from the emergency room with inadequate treatment
- Surgical mistakes or errors
