Description

This is a medical malpractice case involving heart damage resulting from a delayed angioplasty. Penny Wade sued Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center, two emergency room doctors, and their employers, under Chapter 74 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Hillcrest challenged the sufficiency of Wades expert reports for failure to include the causation element as to Hillcrest and its nursing staff. The trial court denied Hillcrests motion to dismiss. Hillcrest appeals in two issues: (1) trial court abused its discretion in denying Hillcrests motion to dismiss; and (2) Wade would not be entitled to a thirty-day extension to cure any deficiency in her expert reports.
