Our client's father was having surgery to remove his prostate gland because he had been diagnosed with early prostate cancer. Because he had risk factors for heart disease, he needed to have his heart checked out to see if it was up for the surgery. The surgeon and internist both agreed that he needed cardiac clearance for surgery but neither actually did the necessary tests. They both thought the other one had done them. Obviously they failed to communicate with each other. During the surgery, the patient suffered a heart attack and died on the table.
