Kaiser – Failure to Diagnose Spinal Cord Abscess / Permanent Disability

The medical negligence attorneys at Walkup obtained a $1,950,000 settlement after Kaiser failed to timely diagnose an abscess compromising a man’s spinal canal, resulting in partial permanent disability. He requires twenty-four-hour care and will most likely be confined to a wheelchair for the remainder of his life and be dependent on others for most of his needs. The settlement provided for his medical care and needs, his loss of income, and his wife’s loss of consortium.
