OK I'll be more direct; most of the advice written thus far in this thread is crap, and uninformed crap to boot. I am a lawyer - here's my advice - consult with a medical malpractice lawyer, and do it now. There are limitations on how long you can wait to file a claim. These limitations vary from state to state (PA is 2 years, and the "discovery" rule applies).

All good med-mal lawyers work on a contingent fee basis. You pay nothing unless you win, then you pay a percentage of the winnings to the lawyer. The law firm takes the economic risk; not you. Their take is typically 30% to 40%, depending on a settlement or trial. These are fair numbers, because you are guaranteed ZERO if you try to do this without a lawyer. Also, all med-mal lawyers will give you an initial consult, for free - they will talk to you.

As to the merits of the case, the ONLY way to know if you have a good case is to talk to a lawyer. Not the people on a car forum OT section. You might have a very good case (I do not know your specific facts); it sounds half decent to me - definitely worth pursuing by talking to a med-mal lawyer. The lawyer has relationships with doctors who assess your medical records and help to decide whether malpractice has occurred. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW.

If you truly have lost quality of life due to bad service from an urgi-care type of place, pursue it. The stuff about you choosing to go there, or you choosing to partake in the activity that harmed you, etc is all nonsense. Yes, people get hurt, and you paid for care but apparently didn't get it properly administered. The medical center holds itself out as providing quality medical care, and they must abide by whatever the proper legal duty of care standard applies. Also, the med mal standard certainly IS NOT gross negligence.
