Claims for medical negligence for missed dislocation injuries can easily occur and they can leave a patient suffering from lifelong problems in the worst-case scenarios.

If treatment, such as vital surgery, doesn’t take place quickly enough, some damage can be irreversible.

How do you prove your medical negligence claim?
Given that this area of law can be complex and requires a specialist lawyer, what’s the best way to prove your medical negligence claim?
There is evidence that we can obtain that is often seen as the ‘standard’ for this type of case. We can also use witness evidence from you which can help when a claim, especially when a claim is being disputed. This kind of evidence can be used to prove that you’re entitled to compensation and can be used to value your case as well.
There’s also the need to make sure that you get a good lawyer on board. This can be the difference between succeeding with a case or losing out on thousands of pounds in compensation!
Can you make a cosmetic surgery compensation claim?
In the same way that people can recover compensation for medical negligence, you could also be entitled to make a cosmetic surgery compensation claim if that’s how you’ve suffered.
Private healthcare organisations have the same duty of care that public ones like the NHS does. At the same time, if cosmetic procedures go wrong with the NHS, their usual duty of care also applies.
If you have undergone a cosmetic procedure and something has gone wrong with any part of the process, you could be entitled to make a claim for compensation. We may be able to represent you for a case on a No Win, No Fee basis.

Worrying revelations from Ian Paterson inquiry
The revelations from the recently published report following the Ian Paterson inquiry has revealed that more than 1,000 patients suffered needless operations.
The report also recommends that perhaps all 11,000 of his patients are recalled to identify if the number of victims is greater. The report has also criticised the NHS and the hospitals he has worked at, citing that there was a “culture of avoidance and denial” and “wilful blindness” to his actions.
As specialist medical negligence lawyers, we often see the horrors patients go through when something goes wrong. But this is a very different case that involves a rogue surgeon who has deliberately harmed and violated the patients he was charged with caring for.
