DISMISSAL OBTAINED IN CASE OF CLAIMED IMPROPER SURGERY LEADING TO DEATH

Kevin Natale, Esq.

In December, 2024, our attorney Kevin Natale, Esq. successfully obtained summary judgment and dismissal of the case on behalf of an orthopedic surgeon and his group.  Plaintiff claimed that the surgeon improperly recommended and performed hip repair surgery, failed to obtain the patient’s informed consent, and failed to properly treat the patient post-operatively.  Following the surgery, the patient sustained multiple cardiac arrests and anoxic brain injury and ultimately passed away. The case was pending in Supreme Court, Nassau County.
