Our client went into the hospital for a bone marrow biopsy. During the biopsy, the hematologist cut into an artery in his hip. The artery continued to bleed over the next 5 days. Before the artery was fixed, he had lost one-half of the entire blood volume in his body.
The orthopaedic surgeon was called during this time but he chose not to investigate the problem.
All of the bleeding caused a permanent injury to our client's sciatic nerve, which caused him to have a foot drop, leaves him to live in extreme pain, on morphine and his leg is paralyzed from the knee down.
Awarded: $1,500,000
