The standard of care that the court must apply in medical malpractice cases is not one of perfection; but rather is to require the physician to conduct him or herself within a reasonable degree of skill and knowledge. This includes skill and care with respect to diagnosis, and treatment of the patient's medical condition. It is an objective standard and varies according to the level of the experience attained by the physicians whose performance is under consideration.
