be diffiniton, I do not think you have a case for MP. Mp is difined as such,

1. Improper or negligent treatment of a patient, as by a physician, resulting in injury, damage, or loss.
2. Improper or unethical conduct by the holder of a professional or official position.


I also by what you say, I do not think this was the case. It could be he just missed the other tumor or inflamation. He is human. Heck, my ENT putted around for 3 weeks, suspecting cancer but, HE made sure he got HIS MONEY from me first before refering me out to another with more expereince. Now that was moraly wrong, but did not constitute Mal Practice. Just a piss poor morals and judegment on his part.

Bottom line is, you have found a Doc you like and trust. He is getting the care you deserve and need. I hope all comes back benign.
