Medical Abandonment

Once a doctor agrees to treat a patient, the doctor has a duty to continue that treatment to its completion, or to transfer the patient to a more specialized doctor if necessary. If the doctor breaches this duty by abandoning the patient before the patient recovers, the doctor is negligent and liable for any damages or injury the negligent behavior might cause the patient.

Medical abandonment is a form of medical negligence. In order to establish patient abandonment, you must prove two things:

the doctor was treating you and had a duty to continue

the doctor terminated the treatment prior to completion of the treatment.

Medical Abandonment is often described as the unilateral termination of the doctor patient relationship at a time when continuing care is still needed. It is a form of negligence that involves termination of care without the patient’s consent.

Medical Abandonment can also occur if emergency medical technicians drop a patient at the emergency department without giving a report or otherwise transferring care of the patient to a responsible party.
