Description
1 Lois Olshan appeals from the order entered on April 10, 2003 in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County granting defendants preliminary objections regarding venue and transferring the case to Montgomery County for trial. The underlying claim was that after a mammogram was taken and read in Montgomery County, a cancerous lesion was missed, resulting in a much more serious cancer when finally diagnosed. The corporate defendants in Philadelphia County were sued either because the Montgomery County physicians and facilities were agents of the Philadelphia corporate defendants or because of corporate liability in failing to retain competent physicians, inadequate rules and policies, and failure of supervision. Since all the medical care was "furnished" to the patient in Montgomery County, we hold that the cause of action arose in Montgomery County and under the new venue rule and statute, venue is not proper in Philadelphia County. Therefore, we affirm.
