Has your treatment been delayed or your condition misdiagnosed?


Medical professionals can often either miss or misdiagnose your medical condition.


Common examples include:

  • Reading an 'X' Ray, but failing to spot a fracture
  • Failing to respond to test results

Misdiagnosis claims are varied and can cover a wide range of medical conditions.

  • orthopaedics
  • cancer, and
  • misdiagnosis by a GP setting over a long period, or
  • misdiagnosis in A & E when treatment may be time critical
