Frierson v. Coast Gastroenterology etc. CA2/9
Plaintiff and appellant Michael G. Frierson (appellant) claims that he developed rectal cancer because defendants and respondents Coast Gastroenterology A Medical Group, Inc. (Coast) and Steven Lerner, M.D. (collectively respondents) breached the standard of care by, inter alia, failing to follow up or advise appellant to follow up after a colonoscopy. The trial court granted respondents’ motion for summary judgment after concluding that there were no triable issues as to breach of the standard of care or causation. Appellant now appeals and argues that summary judgment was improper because there is a triable issue as to whether respondents breached the standard of care. We find no error and affirm.
