JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
COMPLAINT
1. Plaintiffs, Julie Cori and Robert Cori, who at all relevant times to this
action resided at 1545 New Bloomfield Road, New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania 17068.
2. Holy Spirit Hospital is a non-profit organization (hereinafter "Defendant
HSH") under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which maintained a
registered address for service at 503 North 21St Street, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania 17011.
3. Rhondey Harford, M.D. (hereinafter "Defendant Harford") is an adult-
individual who was licensed to practice medicine in the state of Pennsylvania and at all
relevant times hereto, maintained a principal place of business at 629-D Lowther Road,
Lewisberry, Pennsylvania 17339.
4. Quantum Imaging & Therapeutic Associates, Inc. is a professional
corporation (hereinafter "Defendant QITA" ), incorporated under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which maintained an address for service at 629-D
Lowther Road, Lewisberry, Pennsylvania 17339.
5. At all times hereto, Defendant Harford was an agent, apparent agent,
ostensible agent, servant, and/or employee of Defendant HSH and/or Defendant QITA.
6. In the October of 2004, Mrs. Cori, a 45-year-old woman, began to develop
symptoms of dizziness and weakness.
7. On or about October 14, 2004, Mrs. Cori presented to her primary care
physician, Dr. Robert Matsko, with complaints of the aforementioned symptoms.
8. Following her examination, Dr. Matsko ordered an MRI of her brain to
further evaluate her symptoms.
9. On or about October 19, 2004, Mrs. Cori presented to Defendant HSH for
her scheduled MRI.
10. The MRI was improperly interpreted by Defendant Harford as a "normal
MRI of the brain, without evidence of acute abnormality or abnormal enhancement," and
therefore, negative.
11. Because Mrs. Corl's MRI was reported to Dr. Matsko as negative, he
referred Mrs. Cori to Neurology Center, P.C., for further examination.
2
12. AS instructed, Mrs. Cori presented to Neurology Center, P.C. for further
evaluation.
13. At the time of this evaluation Mrs. Cori was examined by Dr. Ravi
Dukkipati.
14. The examination revealed that Mrs. Cori had episodic dizziness,
characterized as vertigo and was accompanied by tinnitus, but with no hearing loss.
15. Based on the history, physical examinations, and the reportedly negative
MRI, vestibular therapy was recommended.
16. Mrs. Cori completed the therapy as instructed.
17. Approximately five (5) years later in 2009, Mrs. Cori's symptoms began to
worsen and she again presented to Dr. Matsko.
18. Mrs. Cori's chief complaints were of facial numbness, dizziness, hearing
loss and muscle twitching and swelling in her face.
19. Dr. Matsko ordered a CT Scan of Mrs. Corl's brain to better evaluate her
worsening symptoms.
20. On or about December 18, 2009, Mrs. Cori presented to Defendant HSH
to undergo her scheduled CT Scan.
21. Mrs. Cori's CT Scan was interpreted by Dr. Douglas Martin who noted an
"avidly enhancing extra axial mass... oval in shape at the right cerebellopontine (CP)
which appears to contract the tentorium..."
22. After reviewing Mrs. Corl's CT Scan, Dr. Martin felt it necessary to look
more closely at Mrs. Corl's brain and requested that an MRI be performed of her brain.
3
23. Thereafter, on or about December 22, 2009, Mrs. Cori presented to
Defendant HSH for her scheduled MRI.
24. Dr. Martin again interpreted this MRI and compared it to Mrs. Corl's
previous MRI in October of 2004.
25. Dr. Martin specifically states in his report comparing the October 2004
MRI with the December 22, 2009 MRI that, "again seen is a right CP angle mass centered
at the porus acusticus measuring 2.6 x 2.0 centimeters..."
26. Dr. Martin also reported that it "extends into the right inner auditory
canal (IAC).... and that there is a mass effect on the right cranial nerve #5 that is
consistent with the patient's complaints of right facial swelling..."
27. This right CP angle mass was consistent with acoustic schwannoma and
had grown from a small tumor in 2004 to a larger sized tumor in 2009.
2.8. Thereafter, Mrs. Cori presented to Dr. Marcus Keep at Pinnacle Health
Neurological Surgery.
2.9. Dr. Keep recommended that Mrs. Cori undergo gamma knife surgery to
treat the tumor and referred her to a surgeon at the University of Pittsburgh Medical
Center, Dr. Douglas Kondziolka.
30. Dr. Kondziolka reviewed the 2004 MRI and compared it to the current
MRI and confirmed that the tumor had grown significantly over the last 5 years. He
recommended immediate surgical intervention to prevent further damage.
31. However, Dr. Kondziolka counseled Mrs. Cori that her current symptoms
would probably remain even after surgery given the large size of the tumor.
4
32. On or about January 21, 2010, Mrs. Cori presented to the University of
Pittsburgh Medical Center to undergo here scheduled outpatient gamma knife
procedure.
33. The gamma knife procedure was performed by Dr. Kondziolka without
any complications and Mrs. Cori was discharged later that same day.
34. In the months following surgery, Mrs. Cori continued to have hearing loss,
facial numbness and swelling on her right side.
35). On or about July 12, 2010, Mrs. Cori presented again to Dr. Kondziolka
and underwent an MRI scan of her brain.
36. Fortunately, this MRI demonstrated a "cystic change of the right acoustic
neuroma with decreased contrast uptake within the middle of the tumor that is stable in
size..."
37. Mrs. Cori also underwent an audiogram that same day which
demonstrated "speech discrimination score on the right side decreased from a level of
96% to 72%..."
38. Dr. Kondziolka was please with the radiographic changes in the Mrs.
Corl's tumor and requested to see her back for a repeat MRI and audiogram in twelve
(12) months.
39. Unfortunately, due to the delay in diagnosing the tumor, Mrs. Cori
continues to have facial numbness, balance issues, hearing loss and significant muscle
twitching in her face.
s
40. She in required to hold onto railings any time she uses stairs and hold
onto a wall anytime she makes turns to prevent her from falling.
41. In addition, Mrs. Corl now chokes very easily because she has completely
lost her gag reflex and has no sensation in her right eye.
42. Mrs. Corl's current limitations have had a dramatic impact on her ability
to care for her family.
43. Mrs. Corl's youngest daughter, Brooke, is severely disabled.
44. Mrs. Corl is and will continue to be the primary care taker of Brooke as
long as her physical condition allow.
45. Brooke is 19 years old and suffers from brittle bone disease and cannot
walk or care for herself. She also suffered from hydrocephalus.
46. Mrs. Corl's physical limitations, which resulted from the delay in
diagnosis, have and will continue to directly affect Mrs. Corl's ability to care for Brooke.
Outside assistance may be necessary due to her physical limitations.
47. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Corl has suffered and will continue to suffer severe injuries including but not
limited to, nerve damage, muscle paralysis, deafness, etc.
48. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Corl has been forced to incur liability for medical treatments, medicines,
hospitalizations and similar miscellaneous expenses in an effort to restore herself to
health and because of the nature of said injuries, Plaintiff is advised and therefore avers
6
that she will be forced to incur medical and similar miscellaneous expenses in the future
and a claim is made therefore.
49. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Cori has sustained a loss of past and future earnings, a loss of earning power and a
loss of earning capacity and a claim is made therefore.
50. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Cori has sustained and will continue to sustain physical pain and suffering, mental
pain and anguish, discomfort, inconvenience and distress and a claim is made therefore.
51. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Cori has sustained and will continue to sustain in the future disfigurement,
embarrassment, and humiliation and a claim is made therefore.
52. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Plaintiff,
Julie Cori has sustained and will continue to sustain a loss of life's pleasures and
enjoyment and a claim is made therefore.
53. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants' negligence, Robert
Cori has suffered and will continue to suffer a loss of intimacy, consortium, services,
society, advice and companionship and a claim is made therefore.

no responsive pleading is required. By way of further answer, it is admitted that Dr.
Harford interpreted a brain MRI study performed on Julie Corl in October 2004.
47-53. Denied as to Dr. Harford. The averments of these paragraphs of the

appropriately and in a fashion commensurate with standards of radiology care
applicable under similar circumstances and that he in no way negligently caused,
negligently contributed to cause or negligently increased the risk of causing any injury or
damage to Plaintiffs and he is in no fashion liable to Plaintiffs on their Complaint.
WHEREFORE, Dr. Harford demands judgment in his favor and against Plaintiffs.
NEW MATTER
66. Plaintiffs' Complaint, in whole or in part, fails to state causes of action
cognizable under Pennsylvania law as against Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging.
67. To the extent currently applicable or to the extent that it may later prove to
be applicable, Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging hereby plead the statute of limitations
and/or statute of repose referable to personal injury actions in Pennsylvania to preserve

Plaintiffs' Complaint, Dr. Harford acted appropriately and in a fashion commensurate

cause any injury or damage to Plaintiffs and Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging are in no
fashion liable to Plaintiffs on their Complaint.

such injury or damage was the result of the acts or omissions of third persons other
than Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging and for whom Dr. Harford and Quantum
Imaging are in no way liable or responsible.
72. To the extent Plaintiffs have sustained any injury or damage, any such
injury or damage was the function of the natural progression of a disease process and
not due to any professional negligence on the part of Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging.
73. Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging hereby plead all rights and defenses
available under the Medical Care Availability and Reduction of Error Act.
74. Dr. Harford and Quantum Imaging hereby plead all rights and defenses
available as set forth in Pennsylvania's Comparative Negligence Act, as amended.
75. Plaintiffs' claims for special damages may be reduced and/or limited by

Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision in Moorhead v. Crozer Chester Medical Center.
