Trained to Fight. Built to Strategize. Designed to Win.

Have you ever considered what it would feel like to have a claim filed against you?

Imagine the following scenario: A courtroom is thick with intensity. The plaintiff's attorney repeatedly asks you to answer his question. You second-guess what you should say. The words don't come; you are paralyzed. The jury just stares at you. A few scribble notes; one woman glares. You look to your defense team as if to say, "What do I do?" They whisper to each other without making eye contact with you.

You are lost, confused, unprepared and afraid. And, one false move may cost you everything.

At MedPro, we strive to ensure that you will never feel like you are alone. Our claims team makes sure you will never feel uninformed about where your case stands. We will be your trusty guides through any claim or trial scenario that might arise.

We have decades of experience on how MedPro applies its strong defense philosophy. The following diverse case studies illustrate our expertise and diligence at work in the real world.

Case: In the late 1990s, a female patient was referred to our insured for further evaluation of cardiac symptoms, which included severe and worsening shortness of breath that was debilitating and interfered with her daily activities. She had a pre-existing history of renal insufficiency, as evidenced by her persistently elevated BUN/creatinine levels. Under the care of our insured, she underwent a thorough evaluation, including a cardiac catheterization, trans-esophageal echocardiogram and a digital subtraction angiography. Upon evaluation of these tests, it was determined that she needed to undergo cardiac surgery.

Case: Around 15 years ago, a young teenager underwent a surgical repair on his ankle under general anesthesia. He postoperatively showed signs of progressive neurological deterioration and was left with a profound residual encephalopathy and severe neurological handicaps.
