A medical malpractice lawsuit has been filed in relation to a man who claims that his gangrene in his toe was not treated in time and he then needed to have his lower leg amputated. William Riley was treated by a doctor who reportedly noted that he had soreness in his second toe and early gangrene. However, he claims that little to no care was provided during this time. It was then reported that a week later the infection set in and he was forced to undergo a below-the-knee amputation.
