Medical Negligence

Gynaecological Negligence Claims

Most women require gynaecological care at some point in their lives. Gynaecological investigations and treatments are common procedures. Unfortunately, despite this, mistakes are often made resulting in medical negligence.

Gynaecological Injuries

Compensation Solicitors

Gynaecological injuries can occur if there is a failure to diagnose a condition or if there is negligent intervention by a GP, hospital doctor, consultant, nurse or healthcare professional. Types of cases include:

  • cancer misdiagnosis;
  • damage caused during pregnancy termination;
  • damage caused during sterilisation operations;
  • damage caused during dilation and curettage (“D & C”) procedures;
  • failure to diagnose ectopic pregnancy;
  • damage caused during childbirth, including caesarean birth;
  • infections acquired in hospitals;
  • damage during a hysterectomy (removal of the womb);
  • oophorectomy (removal of the ovaries) or salpingectomy (removal of the fallopian tubes);
  • damage during other operations;
  • damage during colposcopy (a procedure to examine the cervix);
  • myomectomy (fibroid removal);
  • uterine perforation during insertion of the contraceptive coil; and
  • problems caused by prescribed contraceptives.

Serious gynaecological injuries can cause infertility, persistent pain and bleeding, psychiatric damage, miscarriage and premature labour. We have experience of dealing with these very personal claims in a sensitive manner.

For further information please see Frequently Asked Questions about Clinical Negligence Claims. We do not charge for dealing with initial enquiries even if we do not take the claim on. This way you can be safe in the knowledge that you can receive expert legal advice about your complaint without committing to any obligations regarding fees. If we consider that you have a claim which is likely to be successful then we can offer you a “no win no fee” agreement.

After our son had an accident at work resulting in life-changing injuries, we were given the name of this law firm to help us deal with the aftermath. Ben Davey and his team were efficient, friendly and caring and, after a great deal of hard work, we achieved a very satisfactory outcome for our son. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this firm.

Ben Davey and Tom Saady Gardiner supported us through navigating our son’s inquest. With the professionalism of Dean Wilson, delivered by Ben and our Barrister, the outcome of the inquest recognised the failings in our son’s care, which was the outcome we had hoped to achieve. Tom’s empathy and kindness was greatly appreciated over the course of the 5 day inquest. If you find yourself in this unenviable position then we would not hesitate in recommending Dean Wilson to help you navigate this overwhelming process.

My experience with Dean Wilson was an excellent one. At the start of my claim, I didn’t understand what was going on and how it worked but thanks to Ben Davey, Jessica Edwards and the rest of the team who helped me comprehend how the claim works from start to finish and was always ready to give advice.

I had a case of medical negligence and I can’t praise Ben Davey enough. I was kept informed of everything all throughout my case which took a long time but was there to help all the way. I would highly recommend to anyone who needed help and my claim was settled way beyond what we expected.

My father sadly lost his sight due to a failure in the system in the NHS, from the moment we raised this with the team led by Ben Davey we felt in safe and trusted hands. Things were made easy for me to assist my father we came to very pragmatic conclusion to ensure my dad’s last days can be improved. Professional, supportive, timely, and kind would be my summary. Highly recommended.

I can’t thank Dean Wilson enough for what they did for me after I was involved in a horrific road traffic accident, followed by major surgery and long rehabilitation. Ben and Tom followed my case and patiently explained to me the legal intricacies of personal injury claims. They always replied promptly to my queries using easily understandable terms. They were professional throughout, extremely competent and, last but not least, very kind and empathic.
