Fortune-Ozoike v. Wal-Mart – Malpractice Causing Leg Amputation
Ms. Fortune-Ozoike was eventually diagnosed with a left knee dislocation. By the following morning, the blood flow in her left leg was seriously compromised, and she was transferred on an urgent basis by air ambulance to St. Michael’s Hospital. There, she had vascular surgery in the early afternoon of December 27, 2013. Unfortunately, this was too late to save Ms. Fortune-Ozoike’s leg and, on January 4, 2014, she received an above-knee amputation.
