If you or your child has been operated on by Dr Kuldeep Stohr at the Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, you could claim compensation. This includes both planned and emergency orthopaedic procedures.
Contact our team today to see if you can make a claim for medical negligence against Ms Stohr.
An independent expert originally found following a limited review of Dr Stohr's patients that operations involving nine children fell “below expected standards”. The press release from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH) added that the care some children received had “impacted on their quality of life.” This investigation led to Dr Stohr being suspended.
An expert clinical panel is now set to review the care of almost 800 patients who’ve undergone planned surgical procedures performed by the surgeon. This includes emergency orthopaedic procedures on both adults and children.
After initially remaining anonymous, Dr Stohr was named by media outlets. Our expert medical negligence solicitors are investigating claims on behalf of families who’ve been impacted by this review.
