Ear, nose & throat claims

If a patient has suffered harm or injury due to negligent care provided by an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) doctor, surgeon, or healthcare professional, they may be able to make an ENT medical negligence claim. This legal claim can arise from situations such as misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, or failure to obtain informed consent.

What will happen when I make an ear, nose & throat negligence claim?

After contacting Thomson Snell & Passmore we will arrange a free initial consultation to discuss whether there is a legal claim and what funding options are available. We usually act on a ‘no win no fee’ agreement.

We will undertake a forensic investigation into the management or treatment you received, using your account of what happened, and your medical records and radiological imaging. Medical experts (usually consultant ENT surgeons or audiologists) may be involved at an early stage to consider the treatment and management you received, and to advise us on the standards of care that should have been provided, and the outcome that would have been achieved with appropriate treatment. Following this initial investigation we can then advise you on the strength of your case, and give detailed advice on the next steps, which usually starts with preparing a formal letter of allegations to the relevant defendant.
