Cancer misdiagnosis and incorrect treatment

Cancer care has over the years improved significantly but sadly, many people are still affected by the disease. If you have been told that you could have had earlier screening or, that the cancer could have been detected earlier, the devastation is significant, affecting both you and your family.

How can Vincents help you?

Our specialist team have been involved in a vast variety of cancer claims against both GP’s and Hospitals including:

• A failure to diagnose cancer
• Inadequate screening and/or testing
• Cancer Misdiagnosis
• Inadequate cancer treatment
• Errors by GP’s in failing to refer to a specialist oncologist

It’s important to seek specialist advice. Vincents’ clinical negligence team have over 30 years of dealing with medical errors and negligence claims and we understand the need to act with sympathy and understanding.

Our goal is to get you answers and where necessary, the correct treatment. We work with some of the country’s leading medical experts and barristers to investigate your case.

Members of the team have been involved in cases involving cancer to the colon, womb, breast, prostate, ovaries, eye, lung, kidney and bone, as well as cancers affecting children.

What will it cost me?

We will always discuss funding options with you before starting your case. In many cases, we will act on a “no win, no fee” basis and our aim is to ensure that we remove the financial risks of bringing a claim.

Will I need to go to court?

In many claims, no. We will investigate your claim and contact the defendants before any court action is taken. We will keep you fully advised and any attendance at Court, if needed, will be at least 2 years after commencement of your claim, if at all.
