Description
ANDERSON, P.J. In this appeal we conclude that leaving a portion of a nontherapeutic localization hook wire in Terry Richardss right breast is a situation where expert testimony as to the standard of care is not required. We reverse the trial courts order granting Dr. Jairo Mendivils motions after verdict and dismissing the complaint because a layperson can reasonably infer that Mendivil failed to exercise proper care and skill during surgery when he left a foreign object in Richardss body.
