Healthcare

Hill Dickinson has an extensive track record in representing the full range of healthcare professionals. We have dealt with matters as diverse as negligence claims, disciplinary/regulatory proceedings, inquests, public inquiries and partnership disputes. Other cases have involved defamation actions and criminal proceedings.

We are regularly instructed by the UK medical defence organisations and by NHS Trusts in relation to performance issues. We also deal with practitioners direct when they do not have the support of a defence organisation. Our experience includes assisting doctors of all specialties, dentists, orthodontists, optometrists, osteopaths, physiotherapists, chiropractors, midwives and other ancillary medical professions.

We have access to a wide range of experts across the range of medial specialties. We also have excellent relationships with expert counsel operating in the field of healthcare litigation.
