Donna Pascucci and Niall Harding from MMP&S’s Purchase, New York office recently secured a defense verdict in a healthcare/medical malpractice matter in New York Supreme Court, Suffolk County. Donna and Niall successfully defended a Nurse Practitioner who allegedly failed to diagnose cholesteatoma, a rare ear condition, in a young infant, and failing to refer the infant to an ENT for further evaluation. After a trial that lasted over a month, a jury unanimously found that the Nurse Practitioner did not deviate from the standard of care.
