According to the patient the Houston Methodist West Hospital doctor compelled her husband to initial a consent form after the surgery to make it seem that it was done correctly.
A Cypress woman says her doctor at Houston Methodist operated on the wrong foot and then tried to cover it up.
Mary "Linda" Almanza said that she had painful bone spurs in both feet, which were worse in her left foot. Hoping for some relief, she had surgery to repair them in December 2021.Family sues Texas Children's Hospital doctor after 4-year-old underwent unintentional vasectomy Almanza said she and her doctor agreed to do the left foot first, but her right one was operated on instead, and no one caught it. Her husband then told her about a consent form she shared with ABC13 that she said the doctor compelled him to initial after the surgery was over.
"We want to make sure they have the procedures in place so something like this doesn't happen to us or anyone else we care about," Almanza's attorney, Lance Walters, said. "She was supposed to get her foot repaired, but now she has two bum feet."
