Schwab Rehabilitation Hospital accused of not preventing development of sacral ulcers

CHICAGO — A patient is suing Schwab Rehabilitation Hospital and Care Network and Ray Lee, M.D., alleging negligence in medical care in connection with the development of sacral ulcers.

Xavier Patton filed a complaint on Sept. 8 in the Cook County Circuit Court against the defendants alleging they failed to provide proper medical care to plaintiff.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that, in 2014, he experienced pain from having developed sacral ulcers. The plaintiff holds Schwab Rehabilitation Hospital and Care Network, Ray Lee, M.D. responsible because the defendants allegedly failed to provide adequate supervision to plaintiff to avoid the development of the ulcers.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment against the defendant in an amount greater than $50,000, plus court costs. He is represented by Michael Kosner of The Deratany Firm, of Chicago.
