$1.5M Settlement for Ovarian Cancer Misdiagnosis

$1.5 million for the family of a Long Island mother, whose ovarian cancer progressed to a terminal stage due to a Manhattan hospital’s failure to properly treat the disease after Stage 1 ovarian cancer was found following a hysterectomy. Two years later, when the cancer was found, it had developed to Stage 4 and led to the plaintiff’s untimely death at 60 years of age.
