Albuquerque Delayed Diagnosis Lawyers
When diagnosed in a timely manner, the prognosis is generally optimistic for patients who have cancer and other medical conditions. When a patient is given a delayed diagnosis, the prognosis is generally not as positive. A doctor's failure to diagnose cancer or other illness can have a devastating impact on entire families. At Salazar, Sullivan & Jasionowski, we provide compassionate, effective, and active legal help to people who have been injured by a delayed diagnosis.

Failure to diagnose cancer
Sadly, there are a variety of reasons for a doctor's failure to diagnose cancer. He or she may not have taken a patient's complaints seriously, may not have ordered the correct tests, or have otherwise not responded appropriately. Our firm helps people and their families who have been affected by a delayed diagnosis of cancers such as the following:
- Breast cancer
