When we visit a doctor, we trust that they will provide the highest standard of care, make accurate diagnoses, and offer safe, effective treatment. Unfortunately, medical mistakes do happen and when they do, the consequences can be devastating. If you believe your doctor has failed in their duty, it’s important to know that you have legal rights. That’s where Harris Fowler can help.
Understanding Doctor Negligence
Doctor negligence – sometimes referred to as medical negligence or clinical negligence – occurs when a medical professional’s actions (or lack of action) fall below the accepted standard of care, causing harm or injury to a patient. This might include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Surgical errors or complications
- Prescription or medication mistakes
- Failure to refer for specialist treatment
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare
If any of these situations sound familiar, you may have grounds for a medical negligence claim.
