Medical Negligence Lawyers

If for whatever reason you believe you have been the victim of medical negligence, knowing what constitutes malpractice can help clear up some of the confusion that may have prevented you from making a claim previously.

It is the duty of all medical practitioners to make the care of their patients their primary concern. As well as this, they must be both ethical and trustworthy.

Breaches of this duty of care can range from a failure to acknowledge and warn a patient of the dangers that come with surgery, to the incorrect identification and diagnoses of an illness. All of these constitute negligent care.

Medical negligence is often a complex area of law, and it’s necessary to prove the practitioner or health care provider’s actions went beyond an accident or mistake. In fact, you must show the treatment you received fell below reasonable professional standards.

There are a number of errors that can be considered instances of medical negligence, including a failure to:

• Warn a patient of surgery dangers.
• Correctly diagnose an injury or sickness.
• Provide sufficient post-operative care.
• Refer you to a specialist quickly enough.
• Carry out medical procedures with adequate care and skill.

All professionals – including medical professionals – have a duty of care toward their customers.
