Adam Mlodzinski's pediatrician Dr. Judy Huang-Bulger is being sued for failing to recognize Adam's meningitis. The suit alleges that the bacterial meningitis caused him to lose his eyesight. Huang-Bulgar initially diagnosed the meningitis as an ear infection.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of bacterial meningitis is critical.
The family took several trips to Huang-Bulgar, but Adam's condition continued to worsen.
The family attorney alleges that Huang-Bulger should have sent Adam for spinal tap, which potentially could have revealed that the boy was suffering from meningitis, and antibiotics could have been administered intravenously to stop the deadly disease before it took his eyesight.
