Wentzel v. Cammarano, PICS Case No. 17-1254 (Pa. Super. July 19, 2017) Stevens, P.J. (17 pages).

Trial court abused its discretion in transferring venue in appellants’ medical malpractice action back to county where premature newborn was hospitalized rather than letting it remain in county where cardiologist read test, diagnosed a condition requiring immediate treatment and made treatment plan but staff did not transmit the plan to hospital where child was in a timely fashion because the alleged negligent acts occurred in county where cardiologist was located. Order vacated.
