Gynaecological claims in Ireland often arise out of surgical errors or unnecessary gynaecological surgery.
The typical type of injuries of a gynaecological nature that we see at Callinan Murphy Solicitors include:
– Perforation of the uterus during the insertion of a contraceptive coil;
– Failed sterilisation;
– Injury to bladder, bowel or uterus during hysterectomy;
– Unnecessary hysterectomy;
– Defective consent to medical procedures;
– Infection resulting in loss of childbearing potential;
– Nerve damage.
To prove a case of medical negligence against a Gynaecologist or Obstetrician, an expert report is required to prove that the healthcare professional breached the duty of care owed to you. That expert must state that the doctor was negligent in the way they treated you, and that the stated injury has arisen as a direct consequence of that negligence. Often, patients don’t know what to do when this situation occurs to them. We at Callanan Murphy Solicitors have many years’ experience in the area of medical negligence claims in Ireland and have dedicated Solicitors who practice in the area.
