We have a pet dog, male standard size sheepa-doodle named Grant (aka a pony as me
and my kids like to call him).
I’m currently employed at Advocate Medical Group as front desk in Illinois the clinic here
is primarily internal medicine and family practice with a unique twist, that makes us a
one stop shop making it much easier for our patients to see their specialist such as their
dietician, pharmacist, endocrinologist and palliative care. I’m working on becoming a
certified medical assistant in hopes to get all the knowledge possible to assist
physicians deliver the best care possible to the patient.
The statute of limitations on Illinois medical malpractice lawsuits are two years from the
date of injury
but no longer than four years to file a lawsuit. For example, you visit a
opthamologist you explain sudden changes of vision and black floaters, you get exam
but there’s no imagining ordered to view the back of your eyes the neglagience in care
can result in complete loss of vission due to retinal detachment. If imagining would’ve
been the detachment could've been properly diagnosed and a treatment plan could’ve
retained some vision. The affected party has two years from date of injury to file a
lawsuit for medical malpractice under some circumstances four years.
