Medical Negligence
Medical negligence involves a breach of duty of care to a patient by hospitals, medical and other health professionals.
Medical negligence cases often involve very complex issues. They may be vigorously defended and require extensive research, the commissioning of experts’ reports as well as significant preparation.
Negligent medical treatment can occur in many different contexts and can include -
- failure to diagnose a specific condition or excessive delay in making that diagnosis
- failure to refer a patient to an appropriate specialist
- failure to report correctly on test results
- failure to provide appropriate treatment
- failure to warn of the risks associated with a procedure
- failure to perform a procedure with reasonable care and skill
- failure to provide post-operative care with reasonable care and skill.
