Edward Koreski and Connie Koreski v. David H. Church, M.D., Clarksburg Cardiology Consultants, Inc., Kevin J. Mace, MD and The West Virginia University Board of Governors
PA-Jacques R. Williams; J-Clawges
* While a patient in the emergency room of United Hospital Center, Edward Koreski complained of chest pains. The Koreski's allege the Dr. Kevin Mace did not properly interpret an EKG taken and failed to send Koreski to a heart catherization lab who would have determined Koreski had a significant blockage in his left anterior descending artery. Koreski is seeking judgment against Dr. Church, Dr. Mace and the WVU Board of Governors as the Dr's employer, for a sum above the Court's minimum jurisdictional limit, pre and post judgment interest, costs and attorney fees. Connie Koreski also seeks judgment against the defendants for loss of services, society and companionship of her husband, pre and post judgment interest, costs and attorney fees.
