The female reproductive system is complex, and doctors who specialize in obstetrics and gynecology (obstetricians, gynecologists and OB/GYNs) must complete years of study. Knowing that these doctors have special knowledge, women trust them with their most intimate health issues — including pregnancy, child birth and disorders of the reproductive system.
GYNECOLOGICAL MALPRACTICE CASES
In turn OB/GYN errors affect matters that affect women most intimately. This is one of the reasons that gynecological malpractice can have such devastating results.
