While cancer remains one of the most harrowing diagnoses anyone can hear, the truth is many patients have a good chance of recovery if the cancer is diagnosed and treated at an early stage.

However, misdiagnosis of cancer can result in the disease spreading and reduce the chances for recovery or quality of life.

The New York cancer misdiagnosis lawyers and the personal injury and wrongful death attorneys at Queller, Fisher, Washor, Fuchs & Kool are experienced in fighting for the rights of cancer patients who are suffering as a result of misdiagnosis.

Many forms of cancer can be successfully treated if stopped in an early stage. However, when misdiagnosed, left untreated or in cases where treatment is delayed, the cancer spreads outside the organ of origination, leading to a much more serious prognosis.

If you believe diagnosis of your cancer was delayed by the negligence of a doctor, the New York cancer misdiagnosis attorneys and the personal injury and wrongful death lawyers at Queller, Fisher, Washor, Fuchs & Kool have the experience and resources to form a team of legal and medical professionals to fight for justice on your behalf.
