Walsall Manor Hospital surgeon Mian Munawar Shah is reportedly at the centre of an investigation and a potential recall that may affect as many as 600 patients.
This issue reportedly stems from the NHS Trust in question identifying that some former patients appear to have higher complication rates than would normally be expected. As such, a large number of cases will need to be re-assessed to determine whether anybody has suffered due to inadequate care. If they have, those affected could be eligible to pursue a claim for compensation if we can prove that they have been the victim of negligence.

Potential group action or multi-party claim
If it is confirmed that any former patients of Walsall Manor Hospital surgeon Mian Munawar Shah have suffered, those affected could be entitled to pursue a claim for medical negligence compensation. In cases such as this, it is likely that we will classify the matter as a multi-party action. This means that, where there is more than one person affected by negligent treatment, they will have their own individual case being pursued, but there is strength in numbers. It is likely that the issues that people will be affected by would be individual to their circumstances, so this kind of case will be similar to other medical matters we help people with, like the mesh implant claims.
