Can I sue a gastroenterologist if they failed to order a colonoscopy and I was later diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer?

This is a well-recognized form of colorectal cancer malpractice. National screening guidelines published by the American Cancer Society and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force establish clear standards for when colonoscopy should be ordered. If your gastroenterologist or primary care physician failed to follow those standards and your cancer progressed as a result, you may have a strong claim.
