  • Fatal Family Flaw
    Nov 8 2024

    On the season finale of Scrubs & Subpoenas, we explore a case between a gynecological NP and a patient diagnosed with breast cancer. Who is at fault when a patient declines to speak about a sensitive subject? Is diagnosis possible when a patient refuses care besides treatment of acute conditions? We explore these hypotheticals and more during this episode highlighting the importance of women's cancer screenings, well-woman's visits, and family history disclosure.

  • The Ulcerated Truth
    Nov 1 2024

    The aging process is wildly unpredictable. A person’s health can go from pristine to poor in a matter of months, no matter the quality of medical care they receive. In this episode, we explore the complicated timeline of a woman who resided in multiple elder care homes before dying due to chronic infection. Learn about this sweeping lawsuit forged against multiple medical entities, and the importance of meticulous documentation and time-sensitive interventions.

  • A Whole Handful
    Oct 25 2024

    What started as a complaint of hand pain in an elderly patient turned into a full fledged malpractice suit against an NP. In this episode, we examine how ordering the “wrong” test can land a provider in hot water—even if it does not directly lead to a patient’s death. Hear expert witness Sally K. Miller weigh in on whether wrongdoing was really committed, or if this is another case of excessive legal force used in the medical field.
