– Surgical Errors: Performing the wrong procedure, operating on the wrong site, or leaving surgical instruments inside the patient.
– Medication Mistakes: Prescribing or administering incorrect medications or dosages.
– Birth Injuries: Harm to a newborn or mother due to negligent prenatal care or errors during delivery.
– Anesthesia Errors: Administering too much or too little anesthesia, leading to complications or awareness during surgery.

In Florida, to establish a medical malpractice claim, you must demonstrate that the healthcare provider breached the standard of care and that this breach directly caused your injury.
