Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice is negligence committed by a professional health care provider, such as a doctor, nurse, dentist, office staff, hospital or hospital worker. In California, malpractice is generally deemed to have occurred when the performance of any of the foregoing deviates from a standard of practice of those with similar training and experience, in a similar medical community.
