GP Negligence Claims

All patients place trust in their GP to take care of their physical and emotional wellness. However, now and again, slip-ups might be made, which can prompt injury, harm, or illness.
O’Reilly Doherty & Co Solicitors is a general solicitors practice established in the 1980s, dealing with GP Negligence Claims in Dublin.
GP Medical Negligence
The majority of healthcare professionals, including GPs, hold a duty of care to secure your health.

- Diagnose a physical or emotional condition (or do so in a well-timed aspect )
- Allude you to a specialist when suitable
- Effectively review and understand your test outcomes
- Solicit a diagnostic test, for example, a blood test or an X-ray
- Brief you regarding any issues ascertained during a test
- Send you to A&E
- Execute appropriate actions to safeguard you from getting an infection
- Prescribe some unsuitable medicine or some inappropriate dosages – a GP should likewise confirm that different prescriptions can be securely taken together.
- Do a minor operation without due care
