Today we are joined by Dr. MedLaw. She discusses the complexities of the "standard of care" in medical malpractice cases. Dr. MedLaw explains that while the standard is meant to reflect what is recognized as acceptable and appropriate medical practice, it must also consider the specific circumstances, location, and the evolving nature of medical knowledge, allowing for some flexibility and acknowledging the role of medical judgment.
