Increased continuity of care lowers patient mortality according to a study published in BMJ Open, a peer-reviewed medical journal. Patients across all demographics had lower mortality when continued care was provided by the same primary care physician or specialist.

Signs of a Strong Personal Injury Claim
Pursuing damages for a personal injury can feel like a leap of faith. Although an attorney can advise you surrounding your case and what they believe the outcome to be, there are no guarantees.
