Fighting For Raidology Error Victims in Florida
When an X-ray, CT scan, MRI, or other imaging study is read incorrectly, the impact can be life-changing. A missed tumor, stroke, or internal injury can mean months or years of delayed treatment and preventable complications. If you believe a radiology mistake in Marianna has harmed you or someone you love, you may be wondering where to turn for answers.

Why Choose Us?
People who contact us after a radiology error often say they already feel dismissed. They may have asked questions for months before anyone acknowledged that a scan was misread or that a result was never passed along. We believe clients deserve to be treated as individuals, not as case numbers in a system that is already hard to navigate.
At Perry & Young, we take time at the start to understand not just what is in your chart, but what this situation has done to your daily life. We want to know how your health, work, and family have been affected. That deeper understanding helps us pursue compensation that reflects both your medical needs and the broader impact of the delay or misdiagnosis.
Our willingness to take on complex, high-risk litigation means we do not shy away from radiology cases that involve serious injuries or questions about multiple providers. We invest in medical evaluations, evidence analysis, and trial preparation when a case calls for it, even when the path forward is not simple. Clients can feel confident that we are prepared to see a case through, rather than looking for the quickest possible resolution at their expense.
Because we are based in Northwest Florida with an office in Marianna, we are familiar with the healthcare landscape in this region and with the courts that may hear these claims, including those serving Jackson County. Our involvement in community initiatives reflects that we live and work in the same area as the clients we represent. That local connection matters to many families who prefer to work with a firm that understands the realities of getting care in this part of Florida.
How We Can Help You
Throughout the case, we handle communications with hospitals, radiology groups, and insurance companies. Our aim is to reduce the stress of dealing with multiple offices and repeated questions so you can focus on treatment and family. We keep you informed about progress, explain options before decisions are made, and answer questions in plain language instead of legal jargon.
Our firm works on a contingency fee basis and advances case costs. That means you do not pay attorney fees up front, and we are only paid if there is a recovery in your case. We discuss the fee structure in detail at the beginning, so there are no surprises later.
Helpful steps you can take before or after calling us include:
- Gather any letters, reports, or online portal printouts that mention your imaging studies
- Write down a simple timeline of when symptoms began, when scans were done, and when you were told something was wrong
- Keep track of follow-up appointments, new diagnoses, and any second opinions you receive
- Avoid signing broad releases or settlement documents from insurers until you understand your rights
Whether you live in Marianna or elsewhere in Northwest Florida, we can meet in the way that works best for you. Many clients appreciate being able to visit our Marianna office rather than traveling far from home, especially when managing ongoing medical care. Our attorneys are also available to talk by phone or video if that is easier.
Common Examples of Radiology Errors
Most patients never meet the radiologist who reads their images. They trust that the scan will be done correctly, the images will be reviewed carefully, and critical findings will be communicated to the treating doctor. When any part of that process breaks down, the results can be devastating.
Radiology errors usually involve either how the image was taken or how it was interpreted. Sometimes an important area is not imaged at all. Other times, the picture is clear, but the radiologist overlooks or mislabels a serious abnormality. In some cases, the radiologist notes a concern, yet the report is never sent or acted on by the treating provider.
These mistakes can delay the diagnosis of conditions that require prompt treatment. Cancer may continue to grow while a patient is told their scan was normal. A stroke may be missed, and the chance for early interventions may be lost. Internal bleeding from trauma may go untreated until a patient becomes critically ill.
Common examples of radiology errors include:
- Missed or delayed diagnosis of cancer or tumors on X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs
- Failure to recognize signs of stroke, aneurysm, or bleeding in the brain
- Incorrect reading of scans after a crash or fall, leading to missed fractures or organ injuries
- Failure to communicate urgent or unexpected findings to the treating provider in a timely way
- Errors involving the wrong patient, wrong body part, or wrong side of the body
If any of these situations sounds familiar, it can be difficult to know whether what happened to you meets the legal definition of malpractice. We work to sort through medical records, imaging, and timelines so you do not have to try to figure that out alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if a radiology error caused my injury?
The only way to know is through a careful review of your records and imaging. We compare what should have been done with what actually happened and, when needed, consult medical professionals. During a free evaluation, we discuss what you have experienced and whether further investigation makes sense.
How long do radiology malpractice cases usually take in Florida?
These cases often take longer than standard injury claims because Florida medical malpractice law includes specific pre-suit steps and detailed investigations. The timeline depends on the complexity of the medical issues and how insurers respond. We explain expected stages early and keep you updated as your case moves forward.
Will pursuing a claim affect my relationship with my doctors?
Many clients continue medical care while a claim is pending. A lawsuit typically focuses on whether certain providers met legal standards, not on your right to receive treatment. We handle communications with insurers and facilities and can discuss any concerns you have about ongoing care in and around Marianna.
