The court accepted the trial judge's findings and the opinion of the expert who examined the patient (Dr. Kuldip) that the respondent suffered a deep bone infection that was not properly resolved while under the appellant's care because the appellant failed to offer timely removal of the implant and alternative stabilization; that failure amounted to negligence and caused prolonged infection and additional surgeries; the appeal was dismissed and the trial judgment holding the appellant 100% liable was affirmed.
