Case Details

A jury awarded $875,000 to Carole Gustitus, a Kingston woman, after a doctor negligently misinterpreted her mammogram in 1998, causing a delay in diagnosing her breast cancer which progressed from stage one to stage two.

Paul Lauricella, with The Beasley Firm in Philadelphia, told the jury that Gustitus, now 66, felt a lump in her right breast in 1998. Delay damages could increase the total verdict to over $1.1 million.
