If you think your medical treatment has gone wrong

If a visit to a doctor or dentist has left you in a lot of pain, or you don’t seem to be getting better, you might wonder if you’ve had the proper diagnosis and treatment. As well as suffering from physical discomfort and emotional upset, you might have been left out of pocket if you’ve paid for dental work or private medical care.   

Getting started with a medical negligence claim

Most of us don’t have much in the way of medical knowledge. The idea of telling a doctor, dentist or hospital that you think they’ve made a mistake is daunting. Before you approach a solicitor who specialises in medical negligence, it can help to understand how they work. That way, you can make sure you're going about everything the right way.
