Oncology Expert Witness FAQs

Common questions about Reliable Clinical Experts oncology expert witness services.

How do delays in cancer diagnosis affect patient outcomes?

Reliable Clinical Experts oncologists testify that cancer staging at diagnosis determines treatment options and prognosis. Delays allowing progression from localized to metastatic disease often convert curable cancers to incurable ones. Our experts establish when cancer should have been diagnosed and calculate the lost chance of survival — typically measured as reduction in five-year survival percentage from delayed diagnosis.

What are common chemotherapy errors?

Reliable Clinical Experts oncology experts testify that chemotherapy errors include incorrect drug selection, tenfold dosing errors, wrong administration routes, and failure to adjust doses for renal or hepatic impairment. Because chemotherapy has narrow therapeutic windows, errors cause life-threatening toxicity including bone marrow suppression, kidney failure, and cardiac damage — often fatal in already immunocompromised cancer patients.
