Case Details

Robert Kline and his wife recovered an award against St. Luke’s University Health Network. A jury found two doctors failed to communicate a potential bladder tumor to Mr. Kline, leading to delayed bladder cancer diagnosis, requiring bladder and prostate removal surgery, and chemotherapy. The initial award of $10 million was reduced by 15% due to Mr. Kline's responsibility.

Additional Notes

Verdict returned in August of this year (2019). St. Luke’s denied allegations and expressed disappointment, unsure if they would appeal.
