Alta Sierra residents typically receive medical care from several established facilities in our region. Understanding where care is provided helps us better serve our clients:

• Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital serves as a primary care center for many Alta Sierra residents. Located in nearby Grass Valley, this facility provides comprehensive medical services to our community.

Through our decades of experience, we've helped clients with various types of medical negligence cases. Understanding these common issues helps patients recognize when they might need legal assistance:

Many cases involve problems during or after surgery. These issues include operating on the wrong body part, leaving surgical tools inside patients, problems with anesthesia, and infections that develop after procedures.

Sometimes doctors miss important signs of illness or make incorrect diagnoses. This can mean delayed treatment, wrong treatment, or no treatment at all. When serious conditions go undetected, the consequences can be severe.

This includes situations where doctors prescribe medications that interact badly with other drugs or cause allergic reactions they should have known about.

Recent studies highlight the serious nature of medical malpractice in our healthcare system:

Research from Johns Hopkins shows that medical mistakes rank among the leading causes of death in our country. The Journal of Patient Safety publications reveal that preventable medical errors affect countless patients each year.
