Do you need legal advice for delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis?
A late diagnosis of your medical condition can affect the type of treatment you receive, but a misdiagnosis could prevent you from receiving the correct treatment and deny you the best opportunity to make a full recovery.
Whilst sometimes a diagnosis can only be made by a process of elimination, there are occasions when a diagnosis could have been made sooner if symptoms had been investigated and patients had been referred to specialists.
Delays can also occur when results or reports are not acted upon or interpreted correctly.
Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis could reduce your quality of life and can have an enormous impact on your health and emotional wellbeing.
We can help with:
- Delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis at A&E
