Medical Malpractice
In the cases of medical error, the majority of incidents are related to mistakes made during operating procedures. Mistakes can range from failing to correct the problem the patient went in for to operating on the wrong body part altogether.
It is important in the case of an operation gone wrong to establish whether the problem is down to a common surgical risk or to medical negligence of any of the healthcare providers involved in the surgery.
Where a healthcare provider can be identified as being negligent, we can process a medical negligence claim and ensure that you receive 100% compensation for your botched operation.
Going in for an operation can be a traumatic experience in itself, but to come round from the procedure to discover that all is not well is every patient's worst nightmare.
One patient was shocked and surprised to find that on waking up following surgery, two of his fingers were in bandages rather than one. When he enquired as to what happened he was informed that the surgeon had originally carried out the operation on the wrong finger and then had to go back and operate on the correct finger.
