Cancer Claims
A diagnosis of cancer is devastating for anyone. While the UK boasts some of the best research facilities in the world, when it comes to treating cancer and improving survival rates, timing remains critical.
We cover all aspects of cancer misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis and negligence claims.
With quick diagnosis and treatment crucial to ensuring the best chance of survival, we have experience dealing with a wide variety of cancer claims, including:
- Incorrect scan and tissue test results
- Symptoms being incorrectly attributed to nonthreatening conditions
- Failure to perform timely screenings and biopsies
- Failure to refer a patient for specialist assessment or scanning
- Failure to respond to referrals for further tests
- Failure to follow up properly after surgery, resulting in a recurrence of cancer being missed
- Overdose of radiation due to misuse of equipment
- Failure to remove all masses identified on a scan or cut away enough surrounding tissue when performing surgery.
