Failure to Provide Informed Consent

Failure to advise you of the risks and medical alternatives available to you before proceeding with a medical procedure can be medical malpractice. The fact that you signed a "consent form" may not necessarily preclude you from suing a doctor for failing to provide you with the proper information if you were not provided the correct information and if you would not have undergone the procedure had the correct risks and medical alternatives been explained to you.
