The obstetrician and his or her team's job is not complete once the baby has been delivered. The time immediately following the delivery is critical to the health of both mother and child, and the medical team must remain diligent to ensure there are no postpartum complications that need to be addressed.
Any failure to recognize and promptly resolve an issue can create grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit if it results in substantial harm to the mother or her baby. If you believe you or your child is suffering from a health complication that occurred due to negligent postnatal care, you should have your case reviewed by an experienced Arizona attorney immediately.
