Failure To Diagnose Leads To £10,000 Award
Our client attended a hospital in the South East having suffered injury to his right ring finger. Our client had suffered a ruptured FDP tendon to his right ring finger. The emergency doctor at the hospital carried out an examination but failed to properly diagnose or treat our client's injury and our client was sent home.
It was not until our client attended his GP some weeks later that he was referred back to hospital for further investigations and surgery. He then required a two stage tendon reconstruction consisting of two separate operations to repair the tendon. This two stage procedure would have been avoided if he had been diagnosed correctly when he first attended hospital. He was left with additional scarring and some slight restricted movement. Our client received the sum of £10,000 to settle his claim after the issue of court proceedings.
