Medical Malpractice and Kidney Dialysis Errors in Dallas, Texas
Kidney disease is a killer, the ninth leading cause of death in the United States. The cost to the Medicare program alone for the treatment of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is over fourteen billion dollars annually. Hundreds of thousands of Americans undergo kidney dialysis treatment every year.
The treatment for kidney failure has inherent risks and unfortunately, people are injured and die every day in this country because of medical errors committed during their kidney dialysis treatment.
