A woman has filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against two physicians, alleging their negligence caused her severe pain, including the loss of several of her facial parts.

The lawsuit, filed on April 27th in Kanawha Circuit Court, names two licensed Kanawaha County physicians.

The lawsuit states the woman went to Stonestreet on October 16, 2002, with sinus pain, which was causing her right eye to water continuously. She continued going to Stonestreet for consultations four more times over the next two years time.

The lawsuit alleges Stonestreet did not properly examine her, nor had he properly diagnosed her medical condition. She claims his negligence causes her to suffer the loss of her right eye and a portion of her upper palate, multiple teeth and a large portion of her nose.

The surgeries resulted in her needing medical care which has interfered with her living a normal and productive life. The suit says, Stonestreet's breach of standard of care caused her to suffer.
