MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CASE PHYSICAL

THERAPIST BREAKS PATIENTS KNEE CAP
Our client, Jane Doe, was 70 years old who suffered from severe arthritis in her knee.
As a result, doctors recommended that she have a total knee replacement. The surgery
was a great success and it looked as if Jane Doe would soon be walking pain free
something that she hadnt done in year!
As part of her recovery, Jane Doe underwent regular physical therapy. About six weeks
after the surgery, Jane Doe had a physical therapist who had never worked on her
before. During a particular range of motion exercise, this therapist pushed Jane Doe
beyond her limits. Jane Doe was screaming and pleaded with the therapist to stop.
Unfortunately, by the time the therapist stopped it was too late. Jane Does knee was
bleeding. Although the therapist told Jane Doe that it was just her wound that had
opened up, in reality, the therapist broke Jane Does kneecap. To make matters worse,
this was an open fracture, meaning that the broken bones broke through Jane Does
skin. Jane Doe underwent an additional surgery to repair for her knee.
The Weber Law firm conducted a medical malpractice pre-suit investigation pursuant to
Florida law and thereafter filed suit on Jane Does behalf against the physical therapist.
Shortly before trial, the parties mediated the case as ordered by the Court. The lawyers
for the Weber Law Firm were able to recover the maximum amount of damages
available under Floridas Medical Malpractice damage caps.
