Case Details
Jury verdict against Yavapai Regional Medical Center (YRMC) for negligence in credentialing a medical doctor, Dr. Whitney James, who performed a botched lumbar spine surgery on Michael Thompson in 2019. Mr. Thompson suffered cerebro-spinal fluid leaks, excruciating headaches, neurological symptoms, and permanent loss of bladder function and mobility issues.
Additional Notes
Attorneys Chris Jensen and Sean Phelan represented Michael and Sarah Thompson. The trial lasted three weeks. YRMC granted privileges to Dr. James despite her incomplete residency and lack of board certification. Creative legal workarounds were needed to obtain evidence due to YRMC's assertion of statutory privilege rights. The award covered physical pain, emotional anxiety, medical costs, lost income, and future care expenses.
