Clinical Negligence Advice Helpline

Every day in the United Kingdom over 600,000 people will see a doctor with medical symptons and over 1,500 babies are delivered.

Recent department of health figures show that there are over 750,000 medical injuries and diagnosis problems every year, and sadly, with continuing cut backs in the NHS, the need for a medical solicitor is growing.

Common causes of negligence within NHS:

  • diagnosis problems and misdiagnoses
  • patient not being warned of the risks of the health treatment
  • failure of the medical practitioner to obtain the proper consent to health treatment
  • delays in being referred to a specialist
  • delayed treatment at the cost of patient health
  • patient are prescribed the wrong drugs
  • problems occur during pregnancy
  • A&E send a patient home, telling them that there is nothing wrong only to find that the symptom worsens and a second opinion reveals a medical diagnoses
  • One of the most serious situation is in child birth and the child contracts Cerebral Palsy, which leaves the child brain damaged for life
