Urogynaecological Symptoms: Our client was experiencing bladder and pelvic floor problems that significantly affected her quality of life. She sought medical treatment hoping to improve her symptoms and return to normal function. Surgical Assessment Failures: The medical team failed to conduct adequate assessment and investigation before recommending surgery. They did not properly evaluate whether surgical intervention was appropriate or consider less invasive treatment options. Inappropriate Surgery: Our client underwent surgical procedures that were not indicated for her condition and were not supported by appropriate medical evidence. The surgery was unnecessary and inappropriate for her particular urogynaecological issues. Worsened Condition: Rather than improving our client's symptoms, the inappropriate surgery resulted in worsened bladder function, increased pelvic pain, and additional complications that significantly impacted her daily life and relationships. Treatment Planning Failures: Our investigation revealed failures in treatment planning, inadequate preoperative assessment, and lack of proper consideration of alternative treatment approaches that would have been more appropriate for our client's condition.
