Cervical Cancer: A Missed Diagnosis

On behalf of Goldsmith & Goldsmith, LLP posted in Injuries on Thursday, January 21, 2016.

Every year, more than 12,000 women in the United States will be diagnosed with cervical cancer. More than 4,000 will die. While these statistics are scary, it's important to remember that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable types of cancer - if it is diagnosed early.
