We have successfully negotiated a five figure settlement for a client who was misdiagnosed with appendicitis as a result of which he underwent unnecessary surgery, had a prolonged hospital stay (including an avoidable stay in the intensive care unit) and a prolonged recovery period. But for the negligence, our client would not have required any surgery, he have been out of hospital in a matter of days and would have made a full recovery within a week.
