Medical Malpractice causes 4 year-old death 263

Medical Malpractice is another area of San Diego Personal Injury Law.

A $2.5 million settlement has been reached in a medical malpractice lawsuitagainst a psychiatrist at Tufts Medical Center in Boston. The suit was filed against Dr. Kayoko Kifuji and claimed she was responsible for prescribing psychiatric drugs to a 4-year-old girl that resulted in her death. The girl’s parents were both convicted of murdering their daughter through “reckless dispensing of the drugs.” Kifuji was not charged criminally in the case.  San Diego personal injury attorney Patricia Wen, Boston Globe  01/25/2011
