The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SATH) maternity scandal has been labelled the “largest maternity scandal in NHS history”.

It centres around a leaked internal report that appears to outline some 40 years of potentially substandard and negligent care, and there may be around 600 cases where failures have taken place. Dozens of deaths and cases of children being left with permanent and life-altering brain damage are being blamed on inadequate care and advice. It’s a tragic story, and as specialist medical negligence lawyers, all we can do is offer our support and advice for those who need it.

It’s understood that there may be previous cases and complaints that the Trust has dismissed that now need looking into. If that applies to you, or where you believe you or someone you love has been affected by issues at the Trust, we may be able to help.

When vaginal mesh removal has become a requirement, it’s important for victims to know that they may be able to make a claim for personal injury compensation.

Our expert injury lawyers are representing a number of patients who have suffered horrendous complications that have arisen from TVT mesh implants. Some of the problems that can be caused mean that women must undergo an additional procedure to try and remove the implant, and in some cases, this isn’t always possible. In some cases, women can be left with defective implants inside for the rest of their lives.

Given that this is such a serious problem, what can women do when the need for removal leaves them with pain and suffering?

We can represent you on a No Win, No Fee basis for a delayed diagnosis compensation claim.

With waiting lists for local GPs reportedly getting longer, and some patients having to wait more than 2-4 weeks to be seen, people may be at risk of developing complications and further suffering. Although we may book a routine appointment with the notion that the symptoms you have aren’t serious, that doesn’t mean that they won’t develop.

Another problem is the restrictions on appointment times as well. With some GPs forced to diagnose and treat in less than ten minutes, there’s an obvious risk of a misdiagnosis that then leads to a delayed diagnosis.
