Cancer Misdiagnosis Solicitors in Widnes

Certainly, no compensation by the NHS or a private healthcare facility to a patient could ever make up for the medical consequences related to a cancer misdiagnosis. Nevertheless, any further pain and suffering incurred that has been contributed by the misdiagnosis is reason enough to pursue a compensation claim. Cancer misdiagnosis leads to a late diagnosis, and when cancer is allowed to go untreated, it can lead to further pain and often sadly, loss of a family member’s precious time. Here at Hampson Hughes, we understand that there’s need for recognition and compensation in such a situation.

With the assistance of our cancer misdiagnosis solicitors, we’ll help give you the best chance of securing the compensation you deserve. Lots of clients in Widnes have benefited from the legal expertise of our cancer misdiagnosis solicitors. Obtaining a fair compensation amount is important, playing a key part in assisting the patient to experience more comfort as they receive care during the recovery process.

Since cancer comes with a range of both emotional and physical impacts that can affect a patient’s life, from family to work, a suitable financial compensation can be of immense assistance. A cancer misdiagnosis leading to a late diagnosis is often the failure of the medical professional involved. This leads to the pursuit of a cancer misdiagnosis compensation claim, where you can rely on our cancer misdiagnosis solicitors to provide expertise that will help you hold the medical personnel responsible accountable for failing to diagnose cancer early on.

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.
