The family of a Cumbrian man, who died of lung cancer after wrongly being told he was cancer-free, has secured a five-figure settlement.

The man became unwell with flu-like symptoms in 2016 before receiving a lung cancer diagnosis in the spring of 2017.

He was told the cancer was curable and had the tumor removed at Freeman Hospital in Newcastle, before receiving the all-clear.

Following a deterioration in his symptoms, he was again diagnosed with cancer in February 2018 and moved immediately into palliative care, but he died eight months later.

If you or a close family member believe you are a victim of medical negligence, you may be able to bring a compensation claim.

For a compensation claim to be successful, claimants must be able to demonstrate that the professional providing healthcare has fallen short of the standard expected of them.

We advise that you gather any evidence you can which may support your claim, this could be a diary of events, for example.

You may be able to claim damages both for the pain youโ€™ve suffered and your general loss of amenity, and also for the loss of earnings and other expenses incurred due to the alleged negligence.

You have 3 years from the date the negligence occurred, or from the time you became aware of the harm caused, to make a claim.

Send our team of specialist solicitors a confidential message to see how we may be able to help you.

In the UK, cancer is the second most common cause of death. So, it isn't dramatic to say that cancer misdiagnosis can destroy lives.

Delayed treatment and diagnosis or misdiagnosis can have severe implications for a person with cancer. This type of medical negligence could result in someone's symptoms worsening and can have a significant affect on their prognosis.

If you believe that yourself or a family member has been subjected to cancer misdiagnosis due to medical negligence, you may be entitled to compensation that can support your treatment and recovery. Get in touch today to start your 'no win, no fee' claim!

Tracey Gambrill, aged 50, died on November 19, 2016, after she underwent brain surgery to treat her epilepsy at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield.

It has been reported that the surgeon made a mistake during surgery and made an incision that was too deep. Unfortunately this resulted in Miss Gambrill's death.

Assistant Coroner Susan Evans said the inquest would look into whether gross negligence was a contributing factor in Tracey's death.

If this is found to be the case, it is believed that Miss Gambrill's family may be able to claim a large sum of compensation as a result of medical negligence.

Norman Barker's Nan called the emergency services after her 27-year-old grandson began having chest pains and feeing clammy. She was told there would be a two hour wait for an ambulance.

Norman's mother then collected her son to take him to hospital within the hour. After checking in at A&E reception at Lincoln County Hospital, she was told there would be a four-hour wait and to take a seat.

As there were no seats available in the waiting room, Norman and his mother decided to go for a walk when he collapsed outside the hospital. He died a short time later.

Norman's mother said: "I feel he shouldโ€™ve been seen at A&E sooner. Someone of his age and so healthy complaining of chest pains and being clammy, he shouldโ€™ve been seen straight away.โ€
