GP Misdiagnosis and How Compensation is Calculated

*Collaborative Post

When we go to our healthcare professional, whether you are pregnant or not, and you are suffering from a health condition that’s not very obvious, the responsibility of the healthcare professional or GP should be to do all the necessary checks to rule out what it’s not, and find out what exactly it is.

These experts help us to understand our bodies better and find ways to treat many types of issues. If they do not know then they should refer you to someone who does.
