35-year-old Jim Lang of Wisconsin has won over $3 million in a medical malpractice lawsuit after losing a portion of his left leg. In 2003, Mr. Lang visited Dr. Gregory Estlund after he injured his leg while working at a factory in Hammond. After four visits to Dr. Estlund with no progress, Mr. Lang decided to see a specialist. That specialist discovered that muscle and nerve damage had limited Mr. Lang’s blood flow, and ordered Mr. Lang to be taken into surgery that day. Mr. Lang still never regained feeling in the lower portion of his leg, and it had to eventually be amputated in 2004. A jury in St.Croix County found Dr. Estlund negligent, and awarded $3.2 million to Jim Lang.
