Compensation for misdiagnosed cancer

depression

As one of the most harmful and feared health conditions, cancer can be highly prevalent, with many people developing the condition at least once over the course of their lives. Despite its prominence, there are still cases in which doctors make diagnosis errors for patients suffering from cancer. In some cases, incorrect diagnoses can be understandable, but where the opportunity to make the correct evaluation was there but has been neglected, a doctor could be responsible for medical negligence. If you have been affected by a case such as this, you could be eligible to claim compensation for misdiagnosed cancer.

We trust our doctors to use their medical expertise and experience in their efforts to diagnose a condition. Where their limits are reached, we expect to be referred for further testing or to a different specialist. When doctors skip or ignore steps in this important process, the health of the affected patients can be put at serious risk, particularly where degenerative conditions like cancer are involved.

If you have been let down by a medical professional, and your health has suffered as a consequence, you could be eligible to claim compensation for the harm caused. As specialists in this area of law, we can help you to seek the justice that you deserve.

Make a claim for paramedic negligence

When we call an ambulance, we are expecting urgent, high-quality care for a healthcare emergency. In the few minutes when paramedics first arrive, they need to make important decisions about the needs of the patient, aiming to stabilise their condition and decide whether they need hospital care. The role of a paramedic is a high-pressure one, but that does not excuse errors in the care that they provide. Where emergency care has failed you or a loved one, causing health complications, you may be eligible to make a claim for paramedic negligence.

Paramedics are specialist medical professionals, so we have a right to expect high-quality treatment from them, just as we would from our doctors. This means that lapses in the standard of care they provide must be taken seriously, and can be accounted for in medical negligence claims.

Endocarditis misdiagnosis – compensation claims

compensation for a diagnosis error

There are some diseases or health conditions that require a quick diagnosis to bring the issue under control and give the patient their best chance of recovery.

As such, an endocarditis misdiagnosis can be one of the most damaging forms of medical negligence that we may encounter in this specialist area of law.
