The diagnosis stage is critical for effective medical treatment. When a professional fails to diagnose a condition correctly, the results can be harmful, or even fatal. Diagnostic errors are among the most common types of medical malpractice, including missed, incorrect, or delayed diagnoses. These mistakes can lead to a lack of treatment or inappropriate treatment, exacerbating a patient's illness or condition.

Surgical errors often involve clear-cut cases of negligence, leaving patients with devastating consequences.
