Kreisman explained that in his experience, most medical malpractice lawsuits arise out of a failure to communicate between the patient and physician.  While sometimes this communication failure might simply result in the patient feeling negatively about his medical care, in other instances it could lead to a misdiagnosis or medical negligence.<\/p>\n<p>Kreisman generalizes that &#8220;most times that I&#8217;ve heard from potential clients about a physician that they feel chose not to communicate well with the patient or family, it tends to be a male.&#8221;  However, the show also suggests that perhaps more male doctors are being sued not because women are necessarily better doctors, but for other reasons.  For example, traditionally men have dominated high-risk medical fields, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertkreisman.com\/medical-malpractice-lawyer\/category\/surgical-errors\/\">surgery<\/a> or obstetrics, while women have generally remained in fields that don&#8217;t get sued as often, like pediatrics or family practice.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertkreisman.com\/medical-malpractice-lawyer\/radio_health_journal_interview_1\/#more-446\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a recent survey in the Journal of the American Medical Association, male physicians age 55 or older are twice as likely to be sued for medical negligence as younger women doctors.
