Operating Room Errors Leaves a College Student with Debilitating Post-Surgical Injuries

VIDEO TRANSCRIPTION



A 30-year-old New York college student underwent surgery for treatment of a spinal herniated disc. Operating room errors left the college student with severe and debilitating post-surgical injuries that greatly altered her future earning potential due to Chronic Pain Syndrome. The end result left her totally disabled.

A settlement of $1.8 million dollars was reached after the college student’s lawyers met with Occupational Assessment Services, OAS, to determine future medical costs and loss of income associated with the surgical errors and pain she subsequently endured.
