WV Family Awarded $4 Million in Malpractice Suit
It took a Wetzel County, West Virginia jury a mere 45 minutes to return a $4 million wrongful death verdict against a physician, Dr. Anandhi Murthy who treated Elizabeth Karpacs when she went to Wetzel County Hospital in June of 2001 complaining of abdominal symptoms. Her surviving children won the verdict, the second multi-million dollar verdict against this doctor in one year.
Murthy treated the woman with only fluids and antibiotics, but she really needed surgery to correct the life-threatening ischemic bowel condition from which she suffered. The doctor left her that evening and she died the following morning.
Attorney Christopher J. Regan, also of Bordas & Bordas, tried the case with Brown. The verdict included awards of $1 million to each of Karpacs' three surviving children, as well as another million for the deceased's estate.
