CHICAGO — A woman is suing Thomas Y. Kim and Orthopedic Associates S.C. for alleged medical negligence.
Ann G. Kapos filed a complaint on April 18 in Cook County Circuit Court, alleging the defendants performed a surgical procedure on her to correct problems in her right knee. As a result of the procedure, the plaintiff claims her knee eventually fractured, which allegedly required her to have total knee replacement surgery.
The plaintiff holds the defendants responsible for allegedly failing to provide her with proper medical care and for allegedly damaging the blood flow to her knee joint and bones.
The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment in an amount greater than $50,000, plus the costs of the suit. She is represented by Michael L. Blumenthal of Milton M. Blumenthal & Associates in Chicago.
