Like all forms of cancer, spotting symptoms of skin cancer early can improve a patient’s prognosis.

And while most examinations are carried out well, sometimes red flags are overlooked or believed to be harmless.

A healthcare professional may fail to perform a proper examination. A GP may mistake a patient’s condition for another skin disorder. Or the stage or type of cancer may be wrongly identified.

While minor delays may not affect someone’s treatment options or prognosis, substantial setbacks can limit their available medical options, or shorten their life expectancy.

For you to have a valid negligence claim, your misdiagnosis must have resulted in a change to your health, treatment options or prognosis.

To determine whether you have grounds for a claim, we consider three key questions:

1. How has skin cancer misdiagnosis impacted your overall health and wellbeing?
2. How have your treatment options changed?
3. How has your prognosis shifted?

By investigating all available evidence and working with impartial medical experts, we can help you establish whether you have a rightful claim and determine the compensation you deserve.

The amount granted from a successful claim can be used to cover the costs of private medical treatment, equipment or aids for your home, therapies for psychological support, and loss of earnings.

If a loved one sadly passes away due to a skin cancer misdiagnosis, compensation can help support their dependents into the future.

Many people hesitate about making negligence claims over potential costs. At Gadsby Wicks, we offer all claimants a Conditional Fee Agreement, also known as ‘No Win No Fee’.
