Medical malpractice, also known as medical negligence, occurs when a healthcare professional or provider fails to provide the standard of care that a reasonable person in the same profession would provide under similar circumstances, resulting in harm to the patient. This negligence can arise from errors in diagnosis, treatment, medication, or even a lack of communication.

A senior citizen was forced to undergo a below-the-knee amputation after improperly performed vascular surgery damaged the blood supply to her leg.
