We are helping patients who are seeking Compensation due to worsening symptoms following delays and poor patient care from Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital & Royal Hampshire County Hospital.
When getting treatment you have the right to expect that you will be seen and that there will be a reasonable time to get treatment, especially when a delay can have life altering results.
Have you or a loved one experienced the devastating consequences of delayed eye treatment at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital or Royal Hampshire County Hospital, both part of the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust? You could join our group legal action helping patients whose eyesight has deteriorated and, in some cases, led to irreversible problems. If your eyesight has deteriorated due to these delays, you may be eligible to claim compensation for the subpar treatment you received.
The Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust operates two prominent medical facilities, Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital and Royal Hampshire County Hospital. While these hospitals provide essential healthcare services, they have faced significant challenges in their ophthalmology departments, leading to unnecessary delays in eye treatments. These challenges with capacity and limitations have even been acknowledged in a recent meeting note with the management of the Trust.
Patients who were not seen promptly have reported worsening eye conditions. In some unfortunate cases, individuals have undergone surgeries when less invasive treatments, such as eye drops, could have resolved their issues if administered in a timely manner.
Fletchers Solicitors are supporting those affected by the inadequate ophthalmology care provided at these hospitals. We understand the pain and frustration you must be feeling and are committed to helping you seek compensation for the harm caused by these delays.
Our experienced legal team specialises in medical negligence cases and in particular group medical actions. We’ll guide you through the process of filing a personal injury claim. We have a proven track record of securing millions in compensation for patients who have suffered due to delayed treatments, ensuring they receive the justice they deserve. This is not just about compensation; patients should be able to access these services and we want to make sure that lessons are learned so that where possible this does not happen again.
Having experienced the problems we understand that the last thing you want to be thinking about is how you are to pay to take legal action. For this reason once we’ve completed the Free case assessment we may take your case on a No Win, No Fee agreement so there is no money to pay upfront and if your claim is unsuccessful you will not have to pay anything. This provides you the financial reassurance at a time you need it the most.
If your eyesight has deteriorated due to delayed treatment from the Ophthalmology teams at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital or Royal Hampshire County Hospital, you may have a valid claim. Our compassionate legal experts at Fletchers Solicitors are here to offer you the support you need to seek compensation for the substandard care you received.
Don’t let the pain and suffering caused by these delays go unanswered. Contact us today and we can provide you with a Free Case Assessment as well as being able to discuss your case and take the first step towards the compensation you deserve.
