Examples of Malpractice at UCLA Health

While every case is unique, common errors in large hospitals like UCLA Health can include:

  • Surgical mistakes, including wrong-site procedures or foreign objects left behind
  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of serious conditions such as cancer or stroke
  • Medication errors, including incorrect dosages or harmful drug interactions
  • Failure to monitor patients after surgery or during hospitalization
  • Birth injuries caused by negligent labor and delivery care
  • Infections resulting from unsanitary practices

These mistakes can alter the course of a patient’s life forever. In many cases, they were preventable with proper care.

What Compensation Is Available in a UCLA Health Malpractice Case?

California law allows victims of medical malpractice to pursue both economic and non-economic damages. Depending on your situation, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses and rehabilitation
  • Future medical treatment and long-term care
  • Lost wages and diminished earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of quality of life

In rare cases where conduct was especially reckless, punitive damages may also be awarded. Our UCLA Health medical malpractice attorneys will work to ensure that your claim reflects the true extent of your losses.
