Medical Negligence

I am comfortable assessing the quality and standard of care in the Emergency Department by applying a combination of common sense, vast experience and the relevant guidelines whether local or national.

​

I am familiar with Bolam and Bolitho principles.

​

I keep up to date at conferences and online through the likes of Bond Solon and various Expert Witness updates. 

​

I am comfortable giving evidence in court, having been an expert witness on dozens of occasions in the Coroners, Magistrates, High courts and the Court of Appeal.  

​

In Medical Negligence the most common instructions comprise of:

​

  • Multiple injury trauma including Head Injury

  • Cauda Equina Syndrome

  • DVT/PE

  • Missed fractures esp. Scaphoid, Hip and Spinal

  • Foreign Bodies

  • Stroke Thrombolysis acutely

  • Burns

  • Soft Tissue Injuries esp. Chest Injury

  • ED Management in general
