General Practitioner (GP)
Your GP is likely to have provided you with a high level of care and support over the years and are likely to be your first port of call whenever you are feeling unwell. GP's, however, are like everyone else and can make mistakes. Unfortunately these mistakes can have a serious and devastating impact on your life. Mistakes commonly occur when symptoms of a serious illness are confused with a more trivial matter. In these circumstances it may be necessary for you to make a claim to receive the necessary financial compensation that you require to meet your changed circumstances.
The most common types of mistakes a GP can make include;
- Delay in or a failure to diagnose a condition
- Failure to refer the patient to a specialist
- Drug prescription errors
- Inappropriate treatment Inadequate history taken/examination conducted
- Failure to investigate e.g. conduct tests or act promptly
Whatever your concern the clinical negligence team at Foot Anstey will be able to provide you with the required expertise to help you pursue and resolve your claim in a sympathetic and efficient manner. If you have any concerns about your GP please contact us to discuss the matter further.
