Surgical error claims for compensation
Start Your Claim
Many operations performed are successful and go without any complications. However, in some cases, mistakes are made, and a patient may have to deal with the adverse consequences.
Having surgery can already be very stressful, so to discover afterwards that something went wrong can be even more distressing; especially if this is going to affect the person’s life.
Surgical errors can happen for a number of reasons, and where they have taken place due to negligence, you may be able to claim for compensation.
Due to the nature of surgery, many different things can go wrong; but some errors can be avoided, which can include things like:
If any of these were to happen, it can have a devastating effect and can cause pro-long pain and suffering, as well as future complications.
If you or a family member has suffered from a surgical error, you may be entitled to claim for medical negligence compensation.
A surgical error can affect someone physically, psychologically, and financially. All of these are factors that a person can include as part of a clinical negligence case:
The physical effects of a surgical error can be painful and life threatening. If a surgical error occurs, it could mean having to undergo further surgery in order to correct the problem, or having to live with ongoing pain because of the error. Both of these things can open up new risks as well.
The financial impact that a surgical error can have on a person’s life can be huge. The person can end up taking time off work in order to fix the error, but depending on what the surgical error was, some people might not be able to return to work at all. This would result in a person suffering a loss of earning – something they would be able to claim for.
A surgical error can have a huge psychological impact on a person too, and this needs to be carefully considered. Surgical errors can cause people to suffer anxiety, depression, and other understandable psychological illnesses.
