Judicial protection of patients’ rights

Your health is the most valuable thing you have. Unfortunately, there are cases when doctors improperly perform their duties, which leads to harm to the health of patients. In such situations, the question arises: how to protect one’s rights and achieve justice?

Cases when a doctor can be sued

Several reasons give the patient the right to apply to the court for the protection of their rights. They include:

1. Improper provision of medical care:
   • Misdiagnosis;
   • Incorrect appointment of treatment;
   • Low-quality operations;
   • Other medical errors led to the deterioration of the patient’s health.
2. Refusal to provide medical assistance:
   • Non-fulfillment of medical duties;
   • Groundless refusal of hospitalization;
   • Failure to provide the necessary information.
3. Violation of informed consent:
   • Carrying out medical interventions without the patient’s consent;
   • Inadequate explanation of the possible consequences of medical interventions.
4. Emergency medical care:
   • Failure to provide or untimely provision of emergency care;
   • Actions that led to a deterioration of the patient’s condition.
5. Violation of the patient’s rights:
   • Disclosure of confidential information;
   • Discrimination;
   • Neglect of the patient’s dignity and moral values.

This is not an exhaustive list of grounds for filing a lawsuit against a doctor. Consult a qualified attorney for detailed advice on your specific situation.

2. Collection of evidence: the evidence base in malpractice cases is often complex and requires the collection of various documents, expert opinions, medical records, etc.
3. Psychological pressure: legal proceedings are a stressful situation that can negatively affect the patient’s emotional state.
