Chronic pain from hernia mesh has emerged in recent years as one of the most common complications associated with this medical device. Despite being approved by medical product regulators and healthcare services, hernia mesh complications have been reported by many patients in the UK, raising questions about its continued use.
Hernia mesh issues can be, in fact, part of a wider scandal about medical mesh devices in general, as many women who have received vaginal mesh implants have reported harmful and often life-changing health complications for years. Chronic pain can have a severe impact on patients’ lives, restricting their ability to complete basic tasks and forcing them to take pain medication on a regular, or even daily, basis.
We believe there may be a severe injustice at the root of some patients’ hernia mesh complications, so we want to use our medical negligence expertise to help victims claim the compensation they may be entitled to receive. If you have suffered pain due to the negligence of a medical professional, we may be able to help you achieve justice.

Delayed corrective treatment and medical negligence claims
We trust our doctors to do what’s best for us, using their skills and expertise to carry out successful courses of treatment when we are ill or unwell. However, there are, unfortunately, circumstances in which errors can be made and, in certain cases, these errors can constitute a breach of duty on the part of the doctor or a medical professional. On top of this, the situation can be even worse when the patient faces delayed corrective treatment and has to suffer for longer than they should.
Given the ongoing strains on the NHS, which has only worsened during the coronavirus crisis, it is not uncommon for patients to endure treatment delays; this does not make the situation any less worrying or distressing for those affected. This is particularly the case where patients have already suffered medical negligence, as they are facing health complications that should never have arisen.
If you are eligible to pursue a medical negligence claim, we may also be able to take your delayed corrective treatment into account in your claim. Anything that has unjustly had an adverse impact on your health is important to consider and could factor in as part of a legal case.

Royal Derby Hospital gynaecologist investigation – more women may be affected by alleged malpractice
In April 2020, an investigation into a gynaecologist at the Royal Derby Hospital reportedly found that at least eight women had been ‘unnecessarily harmed’ by the consultant. In the wake of further reviews over recent years, the Royal Derby Hospital gynaecologist investigation is now understood to involve some 382 patients who were said to have been under the care of Daniel Hay, which was another 110 women being contacted by the hospital in addition to those who had already been contacted.
Sadly, we are unsurprised to find that the list of potentially affected women has grown as the investigation goes on, and there is no telling how many more women may be brought into the review of Daniel Hay’s patients.
