What Is Medical Negligence?

Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare professional delivers treatment below an acceptable standard, directly causing harm or worsening your condition. In the UK, proving a medical negligence claim requires showing that poor care led to measurable harm.

These cases can involve doctors, nurses, surgeons, dentists, or other practitioners in NHS or private settings. Understanding your rights is the first step to seeking fair compensation.
