Medical & Dental Law
The consequences of clinical errors and substandard care can be catastrophic for patients and their caregivers. Sometimes, a patient may be unsalvageable despite the best efforts of the healthcare provider. For this reason, medicolegal litigation will ordinarily require independent expert opinion of which we have access to. We can present expert evidence in Court and assess damages. A complaint may also be brought against a healthcare practitioner to the Malaysian Medical or Dental Council for ethical violations.
