Attorneys Andrew H. Foulkrod and Eric Lauerman recently obtained a defense verdict in a jury trial for a local ER doctor.  Plaintiff alleged that the standard of care required a CT scan to rule out appendicitis; however, the patient's signs and symptoms were accounted for by a large hemorrhagic ovarian cyst that was identified on ultrasound.  The case was defended with the benefit of favorable expert testimony from a Harrisburg area ER doctor.
