Medical Misdiagnosis Claims
Our medical negligence solicitors are available to help you secure compensation if you have unnecessarily suffered due to an incorrect or missed diagnosis.
Medical Misdiagnosis Compensations Claims
You depend on medical specialists to diagnose your illnesses, and incorrect diagnoses can have long-lasting effects on your health. In the unfortunate event that you received a medical misdiagnosis, you might be eligible to file a claim for compensation. You can file a claim if your misdiagnosis put you in agony or suffering, rendered you disabled, shortened your life expectancy, or otherwise caused you to suffer.
You must be able to demonstrate that the care you received—or the failure to provide care for you—led to an increase in your pain or suffering in order to be eligible for medical misdiagnosis compensation.
What is Medical Misdiagnosis?
There are three main types of medical misdiagnosis, these are:
- When an illness or condition goes completely undiagnosed by a healthcare professional,
- When the wrong diagnosis is made, and therefore the wrong medical treatment is given, and
- A delayed diagnosis
There are many different illnesses and conditions that can be misdiagnosed by negligent medical professionals. Some commonly misdiagnosed conditions that we have helped individuals claim compensation for include appendicitis, cancer, diabetes, fractures, heart attacks, heart disease, internal trauma and meningitis.
