What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
My wife had a natural childbirth four months ago in a hospital and her right side labia got partially torn. The doctor did not notice that and did not stitch it. As a result half of it missing now exposing more tender inner tissues that get irritated causing all sorts of discomforts from daily routines to intimate moments. Does it provide a merit for a legal case and should we try to hold the doctor responsible, i.e. ask her pay for the reconstruction surgery/damages?
Thanks very much!
