With conditions such as cancer, heart attacks or meningitis, correct diagnosis and treatment is crucial to giving the patient a chance. Sadly, these are some of the commonly misdiagnosed conditions, as their symptoms can sometimes be hard to determine; but if you believe your diagnosis (or lack of) was due to negligence on the part of your healthcare professional, you may be entitled to a medical negligence claim.

Who Can I Make a Misdiagnosis Claim Against?

In the UK, medical misdiagnosis claims can be made against a range of practitioners and medical institutions, including:

• A GP
• NHS

If you have been a victim of misdiagnosis while under NHS care, you can lodge a complaint against the NHS service. This complaint will be handled by the NHS Resolution, and will likely be settled out of court. With our team of expert medical negligence solicitors, we walk hold you by the hand through this process and do everything to ensure you have a great chance of success.

What Can I Claim for?

If, having assessed your case, we believe you have grounds for a claim, we will help you determine what can be included in your compensation. General damages — compensation for pain, suffering and loss of amenity — are the most common financial settlements. It is calculated by considering factors such as the nature of your injury, impact on your life, length of recovery, and the pain and suffering due to misdiagnosis.

You may also be able to claim for loss of earnings if you have been unable to work as a result of the injury, as well as any out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of the misdiagnosis you suffered. Our medical negligence solicitors will give you an estimate of what you can expect for your case.
