Orthodontic treatment

Dear Client.
To prove medical negligence or professional misconduct against a Doctor/Dentist or a Hospital is a challenging and toughest procedure that often fails on the grounds of technicalities and procedural mandates. Typically, before knocking on the door of the Consumer Forum, a victim should ensure that he or she is a victim of medical negligence and files a complaint before the Ethics & Penal Committee of the State Dental Council so that based on the findings of the State Dental Council, the victim can approach the Consumer Forum seeking appropriate relief over alleged medical negligence. In case the findings of the authorities do not corroborate or support the allegation of medical negligence and deficiency in service, the victim's approach to the Consumer Forum would not yield any relief to him or her and accordingly, the complaint of medical negligence against the Doctor/Hospital may be rejected by the forum even at the time of admission hearing. Given the proposition of relevant laws, you have to be equipped with sufficient evidence (counter opinion from a few orthodontists) in support of your allegation against the treating doctor or hospital to file a complaint of medical negligence and deficiency in service before the District Consumer Commission claiming compensation for harassment and mental agony along with the cost of litigation. The complaint should be filed before the Commission within two years from the date of cause of action. If required, consult or hire an Advocate to navigate the issue effectively.
