They were first time parents from Queens New York about to experience the most wonderful thing in the world.
They trusted their Obstetrician.
Mom was in labor for hours, they gave her an epidural but shortly after the birth there was a problem. The nurses rushed in, the doctors rushed in, the baby was not breathing and had to be resuscitated and taken to the neo-neonatal intensive care unit.
After running tests, it was determined that the baby suffered significant brain damage… the new parents were devastated and looking for answers. While researching Cerebral Palsy the father came upon one of my videos entitled “what is Cerebral Palsy?” and called my office.
After considerable research into the case it was determined that the doctors had violated the standards of accepted obstetrical care.
The case ultimately settled just prior to trail.
