The contents of a report following the Ian Paterson inquiry reflects the severity of his actions and the failure to stop what he was doing.

The rogue surgeon, who is currently serving a 20-year jail sentence following a criminal hearing that took place in 2017, intentionally carried out needless operations on his victims. The report has suggested that over 1,000 procedures were done without any requirement, and the inquiry recommends that some 11,000 patients may need to be recalled to identify if there are any more.

Although this issue has been ongoing for some time, news of the inquiry report comes in the wake of alarming revelations about another Spire Hospital consultant, Habib Rahman, who has also been accused of conducting needless operations.

Victims of the recent Spire Hospital recall affecting, so far, 217 patients of Mr Habib Rahman could be entitled to make a claim for personal injury compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis.

The recall has been initiated over fears that some patients may have been subjected to unnecessary surgical procedures. It may be that patients can claim for any suffering and loss they have endured, and they could also claim for any lasting damage or complications that may have arisen from Rahman’s actions.

You can read more about the recall and find out if you can claim today on our dedicated advice page here.

Brain injury compensation claims aren’t something that people would want to have to go through; both for the victims, and for their families.

It’s winter. So, if you have had a car accident in bad weather, know your rights when it comes to making a claim for personal injury compensation.

Using the weather as an excuse for an accident taking place isn’t something you just have to accept. All road users should know that they need to adjust their behaviour in colder and wetter weather. The roads can be more slippery, and there may be snow and ice to contend with, as well as visibility being reduced.

These are elements that drivers must adjust to in order to stay safe, and any failure to do may allow victims to be able to pursue a legal case for compensation.
