Key Facts

  • Name

    Gurpreet

  • Injury Summary

    Misdiagnosis of a brain tumour leading to further complications and problems, such as complete deafness in the right ear.

  • Case Resolution

    Case settled in April 2021 for £100,000

Failure to properly diagnose and a build-up of fluid meant that our client suffered severe problems including; complete deafness in her right ear, numbness to her face and tongue plus shaky hands.


In 2015, our client was finally diagnosed and taken for the brain surgery that she needed in order to help alleviate the symptoms of her brain tumour. She had been visiting the GP, complaining of symptoms for over a year but her GP had continued to misdiagnose her, as a result she had not received the treatment that she needed.

Our client contacted us in September 2019 and she was represented by Solicitor Nadine Elkin.

The case was settled in April 2021 for £100,000.

Our client said about her experience with us, “I’ve been kept informed and all my queries answered throughout the duration of my medical negligence claim. Couldn’t have worked with a better team.”
