Cancer misdiagnosis claims

If you have been diagnosed with cancer we know how difficult it can be for the whole family to deal with. You expect the NHS to give you the right care you need to pick up cancer at an early stage so it can be treated quickly and does not spread. However sometimes the NHS fails to pick up symptoms and signs of cancer which means a person is left undiagnosed and untreated for a period of time. In this time the cancer can spread and you may need to undergo more invasive treatment because of this. If you have been a victim of cancer misdiagnosis get in touch today and we can set up an initial assessment today.

Pressure sore claims

When you or a family member are admitted into hospital for a lengthy period of time the doctors and medical staff need to make sure you receive the right care and movement to ensure that you don’t suffer from pressure sores. Sadly this is not always the case and some people are left in a hospital bed all day with no movement and due to this suffer from pressure sores. There are 4 different stages that you could suffer from and if you suffered from pressure sores due medical negligence you could be eligible to claim against the NHS.

Childbirth negligence claims

The birth of a child is supposed to be one of the most special times in someone’s life however some people do not receive the care they need during this time. If NHS midwives do not give new mothers the care and help they need when giving birth it can cause serious injuries to mothers that require further treatment. However childbirth negligence can also cause issues to the baby as well for example if the midwives don’t pick up the signs of the baby’s shoulder being stuck this can cause shoulder dystocia. If you or your baby have suffered from medical negligence childbirth that has caused injury contact us today.

Dental nerve damage claim

Going to the dentist can be a scary experience for many people and this can be made even worse if you suffer from dental negligence. When having a tooth removed or having any other work carried out you hope that you get the best treatment possible to ensure everything goes to plan. However some NHS dentists make mistakes and this can cause nerve damage. If you have been a victim of this you may be eligible to make a dental nerve damage claim. Contact our specialist team today to claim against the NHS for the negligence that you have suffered.
