Medical negligence requires proving the medical professional lacked requisite qualification, skill or failed to exercise reasonable care. Mere unfavorable outcome or failed treatment does not establish negligence unless evidence shows the doctor failed to exercise due skill possessed. The complainant did not adduce evidence to prove the doctor lacked expertise or failed to exercise reasonable competence.
