Paul Wylam gets defense verdict in podiatric malpractice trial
Paul
J. Wylam, Esquire, recently concluded the successful
representation of his client, a podiatric surgeon in
an alleged medical malpractice case which concluded
in a defense verdict on August 24, 2005. The litigation
stemmed from the placement of a kinetikos great toe
implant to address Plaintiff’s hallux limitus.
The Plaintiff alleged that the total joint replacement
was unwarranted and further alleged that it was improperly
placed. The Plaintiff presented expert testimony from
Dr. Keith Wapner, an orthopedic surgeon out of Philadelphia.
In support of the care rendered by Dr. Bernstein, the
defense presented two podiatric surgeons, Dr. Harold
Schoenhaus and Dr. Alan Mlodzienski, as experts. The
trial was held before the Honorable Thomas F. Burke,
in the Court of Common Pleas, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.
