Miller v. Obstetrics, Gynecology and Menopause Physicians P.C. and Hanson, M.D. (Filed in New Haven 2011)

The defendant prescribed Estradiol at increasingly high doses to the plaintiff. During this time, the doctor did nothing to follow up on complaints of persistent spotting. Two years after the complaints began the plaintiff was finally diagnosed with stage iv uterine cancer. The gynecologist who reviewed the records here, for us, is board certified and has worked with women like the plaintiff for 17 years. She authored a report concluding that the defendant deviated from the standard of care by not ordering an endometrial biopsy when the patient first complained and by prescribing excessively high levels of estrogen.
