What are the different types of cancer negligence claims?
There are different ways in which the medical practitioner can be negligent concerning your cancer treatment. Negligence can happen at any time during your treatment, whether it is the diagnosis, referral, tests, operation, treatment or after treatment. However, the most common types of cancer negligence that our solicitors have dealt with include:
- Misdiagnosis is when a patient has had their cancer misdiagnosed by their GP or medical practitioner, leading them to diagnose them with the wrong and less serious condition. That can lead to detrimental damage to the patient’s health, leading to unnecessary treatment or surgery.
- Delays in diagnosis can be caused when the GP or medical professional fail to identify the symptoms, by misreading tests, resulting leading to delay in treatment.
Cancer is a condition that should be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible to avoid complications to their health, or to stop the illness from deteriorating.
The most common cancer negligence claims are when a patient attends a GP or medical practitioner, and they fail to diagnose cancer correctly and recognise the symptoms they are presented with. If the medical professional GP fails to diagnose the symptoms correctly, it can lead to a delay in getting a referral to the right specialist; and delay in treatment, leading the condition to worsen.

Belmont solicitors have been assisting me with an injury claim from a car accident I was in earlier this year. They have been excellent throughout making sure I am aware of everything that’s been going on and providing me with all the information I need to make informed decisions. The outcome has been fantastic and I have been treated with integrity and care throughout. I would highly recommend them to anybody.

The team at Belmont has been great. They went through the information with me as often as I needed to understand all the legal bits and feel comfortable proceeding. I was given an update as soon as it was available, which meant I didn’t have to constantly call - which in my experience is not always the case with solicitors. Overall very happy with the service received.
