Medical Negligence - Sueing a Practicioner in QLD?
Has anyone gone down this route at all? Has your case been accepted as a valid case for medical negligence? How did you start the process? Who did you see?

Hi Ne,
Thanks, that's a huge list and yes makes absolute sense, it certainly sparks alot of concerns. I know a year after my diagnosis, I applied for income protection and was the only time I got hold of all reports, pathology you name it. When I read through one report, all be it a typo error!!!! The doctor in charge of one of the scans listed my right breast...Ummmm it was my left. Its the only time in all the reports but honestly. Put the wind up me!!! and the Surgeons office said they'd get on to it. I never heard anything, and it was obviously an error, but really? opens a can of worms doesn't it?? puts alot of doubt into the process, were my results mixed up so I had to go through extensive reports to make sure they were all consistent. Interesting thing I find though, Oncologists down play effects of treatment before, during and even after. All the best with it. x
