What is Medical Negligence or Medical Malpractice?

Medical negligence, also known as medical malpractice, occurs when doctors or hospitals or medical professionals make mistakes in the treatment of patients, thereby causing them harm. This covers a wide range of situations, but some of the more common examples are: injury to the baby or mother at birth, anaesthesia errors, surgical mistakes, misdiagnosis of conditions, and incorrect treatment or failure to treat properly or timeously.

Expert Opinion

Do I have a claim?

We need to obtain all your medical records from the hospitals and doctors that treated you. Due to the highly specialised nature of the work, we will then instruct one of our panel doctors to provide us with an expert opinion whether there was any negligence on the part of the doctor, hospital or medical practitioner. If we are of the opinion that you have a claim, we shall then issue summons against the relevant doctor or hospital.
