One of the most difficult times in many people’s lives is suffering from cancer or having a relative going through the disease. If by any chance a cancer misdiagnosis occurs, it can significantly worsen the situation as one deals with the disease. There is a standard waiting time of 2 weeks to be seen for urgent cancer referral in England and Wales. Every 2 minutes on average in the UK, a person is diagnosed with cancer, but in some cases, symptoms may be mistaken for a different medical problem, leading to a cancer misdiagnosis.
Whenever any patient receives a late cancer diagnosis caused by a misdiagnosis from a medical professional, they are placed in a worse position to battle against the disease. When compared with those who had an accurate and timely diagnosis, their chances of successfully tackling the disease are lower. You will need the expertise of a qualified and trusted cancer misdiagnosis solicitor if you are the victim of a cancer misdiagnosis.
Hampson Hughes Solicitors provides a team of skilled medical negligence solicitors practising in Stockport and across the UK. Offering reliable legal assistance, we are known for expert legal guidance and representation to clients in the region and around the country. We possess a strong track record in helping individuals pursue cancer misdiagnosis compensation claims in Stockport and beyond.
We are aware that financial compensation cannot cover the consequences that follow a cancer misdiagnosis by a private healthcare facility or the NHS for a patient. However, any additional pain and suffering that emanate from a cancer misdiagnosis should be the subject of a claim. Every time cancer is allowed to go untreated, pain, suffering and loss of important time of the patient are experienced.
Hampson Hughes has a team of cancer misdiagnosis solicitors in Birmingham who work to ensure such situations are recognised. We may be able to help you secure the compensation you deserve, just like we have assisted many clients in Birmingham and across the UK. The right recompense plays an important part in assisting patients to experience more comfort as they are being taken care of. The financial support can be vital to an individual or family during the crucial recovery process.
You will know that cancer comes with a range of physical and emotional impacts that encroach on the lives of a patient and their loved ones, from family life to work. Of course, compensation for such a situation can be immensely helpful. The medical expert involved is the one responsible for offering a timely and accurate cancer diagnosis, so should they fail, a cancer misdiagnosis claim can be sought. Our cancer misdiagnosis solicitors in Birmingham offer their expertise, helping you deal with claims resulting from cases of cancer diagnosis failure.
A report that appeared in The Guardian in April 2017 stated that after surveying over 4,000 patients diagnosed with a form of cancer in accident and emergency departments, it was found that 41% of those who had sought previous medical help from their GP had visited 3 or more times. The study, by the British Journal of General Practice, also showed those diagnosed with cancer at an emergency stage have a considerably worse prognosis than those diagnosed at an earlier stage.
With our medical negligence solicitors here at Hampson Hughes, we are able to provide expert legal assistance to anyone pursuing a cancer misdiagnosis compensation claim in your region. Through a consultation that we offer for free, our cancer misdiagnosis solicitors for clients in Birmingham can give you a clear assessment of your legal options after a thorough exploration of the details of your case.
Should a loved one have sadly passed on after a late diagnosis of cancer, Hampson Hughes also offers legal support to the families left behind. We fully understand that no compensation could ever replace a loved one, but it may be able to ease the burden of financial pressure due to the loss of a family member.
If your loved one or you are a victim of a late diagnosis or misdiagnosis of cancer, regardless of whether it’s possible to treat the disease not, you can contact us today for a proper assessment of a possible cancer misdiagnosis compensation claim. Reach us on 0151 236 1222 or email us at [email protected] where our personable team of medical negligence solicitors in Birmingham will discuss with you the details of your case, exploring your eligibility to make a claim.
