Surgery should be the last resort in treating a medical condition. Before recommending surgery, a doctor should try to achieve a reasonable result with more conservative means whenever possible, recommending treatments such as physical therapy, medication, and diet and exercise.
Patients who undergo unnecessary surgery can have their lives changed forever. They are exposed to the inherent risks of surgery, including infections and anesthesia errors. In some cases, patients must undergo additional surgeries and painful medical treatment as a result of the unnecessary surgery. Some cases result in wrongful death.
