In this increasingly litigious world, individual medical practitioners are, unfortunately, all too open to claims arising from the clinical care they provide. The Plexus Healthcare team are experienced in assisting individual practitioners to defend and resolve claims, and our ability to draw on our own in-house GP and part-time Assistant Coroner provides immediate practical guidance.

Our individual practitioner clients are drawn from all parts of the healthcare profession, including:

  • Acupuncturists
  • Aesthetic practitioners
  • Cosmetic, plastic and reconstructive surgeons
  • Dentists and hygienists
  • GPs
  • Nurses
  • Nutritionists
  • Orthopaedic surgeons
  • Osteopaths
  • Physiotherapists
  • Podiatrists
  • Psychotherapists
  • Radiographers
  • Spinal surgeons
  • Sports therapists
  • Triage nurses

A 24/7 medico legal helpline is available as an intrinsic part of the service Plexus provides to clients. This means that the moment clients call us they’re in touch with a senior lawyer – this response to practice/patient queries ensures that clients have access to appropriate frontline advice at all times.
