What is the statute of limitations for a misdiagnosis claim in Georgia?

Generally, two years from the date of injury, with a five-year absolute statute of repose. In misdiagnosis cases, the “injury” is often deemed to begin at the time of the diagnostic error — not when you discover it. This makes prompt consultation with a Georgia medical malpractice lawyer critically important. Exceptions exist for minors and foreign objects left in the body.
