Making an orthopaedic negligence claim
If you would like to claim compensation for an orthopaedic injury arising from your medical treatment then simply call our free legal helpline on 0333 888 0412 or send us an email.
Orthopaedic negligence involves substandard medical care involving fractured bones and joints.
Orthopaedic surgeons deal with a very wide area of clinical practice, from simple fractures, to multiple injuries of life-changing severity. With that wide area of responsibility comes a very broad range of risk of something going wrong, particularly where surgery is involved.
Not every unsuccessful orthopaedic procedure means there has been negligence, but if orthopaedic care is sub-standard and the patient is injured or his prospects of good recovery are damaged as a result, then a medical negligence solicitor should be consulted for help and advice.
Common orthopaedic negligence claims include missed fractures, incorrectly set fractures and surgical errors in hip replacement.
