When a general practitioner fails to provide the required level of care, our experienced solicitors help individuals receive justice and compensation with GP negligence claims in the UK. Your GP is your first point of contact for most health concerns, and you trust them to diagnose, treat, or refer you appropriately.

When they make errors or delay treatment, it can have serious consequences. We understand the impact poor medical care can have on your life, so we support victims of GP negligence through every stage of the process. Reach out to our solicitors and let us handle GP negligence claims with a focused approach.

Types of GP Negligence Claims We Handle

GP negligence claims often involve errors that medical providers could’ve avoided. These mistakes can delay diagnosis, worsen existing conditions, or cause harm. We handle GP negligence cases with care and expertise, including the following:

Misdiagnosis or Late Diagnosis – Missing conditions like cancer or sepsis can delay essential treatment. We examine the severity of the delayed diagnosis and its impact.
Incorrect Prescriptions – Wrong medications or dosages can cause serious side effects. We investigate how the medication mismanagement happened and its impact on your health.
Failure to Refer to a Specialist – GPs must act when symptoms suggest something more serious. Delays in referral often lead to preventable complications.
Lack of Follow-Up or Testing – Ongoing symptoms may need further tests or review. We assess whether your GP failed to act when further checks were necessary.
Poor Management of Chronic Conditions – Chronic pain and illnesses require careful monitoring. We take action when GPs fail to provide proper long-term care.

Understanding Your Right to GP Negligence Compensation

You may be entitled to GP negligence compensation when a GP fails to provide the expected level of care, resulting in harm.

This compensation aims to support your recovery and ease the financial, physical, and emotional effects of medical mistakes. Here’s what may impact your right to GP negligence compensation:

Medical Expenses – You may have required further treatment, surgery, or private care due to negligence. GP negligence compensation claims can help cover these medical costs.
Loss of Earnings – Time away from work due to health issues can cause financial stress. Your claim may include both past and future income losses.
Ongoing Health Issues – Mistakes in diagnosis or treatment may lead to long-term health complications. We factor in the cost of future care, therapies, and adjustments.
Emotional Impact – Experiencing negligence can cause anxiety, trauma, or reduced quality of life. Compensation helps fund emotional support, including counselling or therapy.
