What is an ear, nose and throat negligence claim?

Having surgery on your ear, nose or throat is a common medical procedure, but is one which can easily lead to a mistake or injury. We have experience in making compensation claims on behalf of individuals for a number of medical negligence types, including:

Injury to the face (nerve damage, lacerations)
Vocal cord damage
Hearing loss
Loss of senses
Ear, nose and throat conditions misdiagnosis
Failure to diagnose ear, nose and throat conditions
Administration of incorrect treatment
Delay in treatment

Many of these types of negligence can have severe, life-changing consequences on an individual’s life, for which they are likely due financial compensation.

Is there a time limit to making an ear, nose and throat compensation claim?

Yes - like all other claims for medical negligence in the UK, you have three years from when the negligence took place to start making your compensation claim. For example, if you have incurred an injury from nose surgery, you will have three years from when the surgery took place - or from the day you realised negligence took place.

Are there exceptions to making a claim for ear, nose and throat negligence?

The three-year time limit does not apply to victims under 18. If you are making a claim on behalf of a child under 18, you must do so before they turn 18 - from this point, they have three years to make the claim themselves.

Furthermore, victims of medical negligence who lack the mental capacity to make the claim independently do not have a three-year time limit.

Can I sue the NHS for ear, nose and throat injury?

Yes - whether you suffered from medical negligence in an NHS hospital or privately, you will be entitled to financial compensation. If you have incurred an ear, nose or throat injury at the hands of a healthcare professional, you should seek expert legal advice before it is too late.
