Failure To Obtain Medical Informed Consent

Mr S, Chippenham, Wiltshire

Mr S was in hospital and underwent an orchidoctomy. However, the hospital failed to obtain medical informed consent and in addition carried out the ochidoctomy unnecessarily. An ultra sound would have revealed that there was no need for the procedure, which was confirmed by the histology.

Initiall Mr S contacted 1stClaims under the belief that his problems were caused by a delay in carrying out an appendix operation. However, on reviewing the medical notes 1stClaims specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor could find no evidence of a delay, but did find in the medical records that the orchidoctomy was uneccessary which led to a successful claim.

Our client received £8,000 compensation for his Medical Negligence Claim.

What Our Clients Say

“My reason for contacting you was to help me find a solicitor to deal with a medical negligence claim. My previous solicitor no longer does this kind of work. I can thoroughly recommend the services that 1st Claims offer for anybody who is seeking advice regarding medical negligence. The lady who took my details was very efficient and polite. Within hours I was phoned by a solicitor who you had recommended, and matters are now proceeding in a satisfactory way.

Before contacting you, I was apprehensive that I was not going to find anybody who would be able to help me in this specialised field. The benefits of your service are the fast response, followup and a good understanding of what is required. I have complete confidence in recommending your excellent service. I am actually a retired doctor and can understand whether the people with whom I am dealing have a clear knowledge of what is required. Before I rang 1st Claims, i contacted a marketing agency and was told:-

1. That as my claim was so old, it was time barred.
2. they were unable to help as I had already been to another solicitor.

Both the reasons that I was given are completely wrong. ”

Kindest regards,
