Medical malpractice 05

CHICAGO – A Cook County man alleges he required a second surgery because physicians failed to properly place a medical device during a previous surgery.

Charles Solomon filed a complaint on Dec. 17 in Cook County Circuit Court against physicians Ervin Kocjancic.; Christopher Vendryes; and Laurel Sofer, alleging medical negligence.

According to the complaint, on Dec. 19, 2014, Solomon was treated by defendants for surgical robotic insertion of a device to treat incontinence.

However, plaintiff claims his device was improperly positioned and he needed a second surgery.

The plaintiff alleges the defendants failed to properly monitor him post-operation.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment of more than $50,000, plus costs of the matter, and for that relief deemed appropriate by the court. He is represented by attorney Michael C. Goode in Chicago.

Cook County Circuit Court case number 18-L-013570
