Responsibility of the Doctor and Health Center

After learning about your case about the possible negligence of which you or someone you know or a family member may have been a victim, and after the assessment of our team of professionals on the actions to be taken aimed at obtaining the greatest possible compensation, according to the injuries or damages suffered and in consideration of other circumstances that must be taken into account when quantifying it, We will give you security and legal support in the processing of your case, so that you can have the peace of mind that we know is essential for these types of situations.

When the negligence has been committed by a doctor or healthcare personnel in a private clinic or hospital, the procedure is different. In this case we will resort to civil jurisdiction, finding its basis in contractual liability, by which the patient contracts for the medical treatment or intervention. Although, as a prior action, we will claim extrajudicially the compensation to which you are entitled as compensation, in the manner possible, for the damages suffered.

Normally, the Company will be responsible for this type of negligence with whom the doctor in question and the Private Center has contracted a civil liability policy, so it is usual that in this extrajudicial phase we can initiate actions with the Company aimed at negotiating possible compensation. . From our office we will give you our opinion regarding the amount offered, because if this is not in accordance with the seriousness of the facts we will continue the procedure by initiating judicial proceedings, since we feel committed to ensuring that you obtain the best possible result and the maximum amount to which you are entitled.

It is in this area of ​​private healthcare where numerous cosmetic surgery interventions are performed in our country. On many occasions in this type of operations the desired result is not obtained. It is then that we consider whether it is due to malpractice on the part of the doctor who performed the intervention. In these cases, once your case has been studied,  We give you the necessary advice so that we are clear about the guarantees of success that we will obtain from said claim.

You should know that in cases where a cosmetic surgery operation is contracted, where the aim is to change the appearance of the person contracting the operation, what is contracted is a specific result and therefore, the doctor who performs A cosmetic operation is obliged to obtain a result and not only to use all possible means to achieve it.

Therefore, in this type of operations the patient must be better than he was before, here being the direct responsibility of the medical center, so we can sue both the doctor and the center if the results are not as expected.

The medical profession is truly admirable and essential and the majority of doctors are competent and act according to their good knowledge and take care of our health, but in cases where this is not the case we find that there is excessive corporatism, personal and professional fear (also happens with lawyers), making it difficult to find doctors who will testify against others. To reduce the rate of negligence, the first thing is to accept the error on the part of doctors, and the second is to combat it.

It is a social duty that a victim of medical negligence obtain fair and equitable reparation, and we can all contribute to that, starting by reporting our case, because by doing so we help prevent it from happening again. Provided, obviously, that we are convinced that it was negligence and that we are adequately advised by lawyers and doctors who are specialists in the matter to confirm that, indeed, it is a medical error and that we do not get carried away by the media impact that in Many times they have these cases.
