A cosmetic surgeon in Moses Lake, Washington is facing a medical malpractice suit for unprofessional conduct after performing breast-reduction surgery and liposuction on a 15 year-old girl. The surgeon is accused of making serious mistakes during the breast surgery and his decision to perform liposuction on a person of that age is also being questioned.

While several physicians have come to the aid of the surgeon, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported in 2005 that the cosmetic surgeon had been sued 10 times in the past and was forced to pay fines in 2001 and 2003 for errors made as a dental practitioner.

According to a recent survey, surgeons who are fatigued or depressed are more likely to make surgical mistakes. The survey was conducted by researchers from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the Mayo Clinic. 

These results suggest patients' safety is often compromised by hospitals that overwork their employees. This result may have implications for medical malpractice lawsuits. If an injured patient believes their injury was due to an overworked surgeon, then the injured patient may be able to claim fatigue as a reason for medical malpractice.

Many types of spine surgery require complicated and lengthy procedures. Dut to these complexities, the surgeries can be risky for patients.

One common risk is that surgery could lead to nerve damage. This damage can sometimes lead to paraplegia or quadraplegia.

While these serious lifetime injuries may be the result of the complicated procedure, these injuries can also occur if the surgical doctor is being negligent.

During a surgical malpractice trial, juries make their decisions based on the evidence and testimony presented in the trial. The evidence will often include documents that contain details about the procedure.

The testimony will likely include the opinions of other doctors who were either present for the surgery or who can attest to the surgeons medical record. A lawyer arguing for the plaintiff will likely attempt to demonstrate how the evidence and testimony shows that the surgeon was negligent, while lawyers for the defense will probably show that the surgeon followed procedure.

While most surgeons follow procedure and are diligent in their work, some lawyers are careless and reckless while performing surgeries. When surgeons are negligent in this way, the patient may sustain further injuries that could have been avoided if the surgeon practiced due care.

Determining medical malpractice, however, is not a simple task. It requires a review of the specific case, an analysis of the surgeon's history, and a study of many other elements.
