The cancers listed above have well-established surveillance screening guidelines. In order to have a valid legal claim, you do not necessarily need to have been diagnosed with one of the foregoing types of cancer – these cancers are simply the types that most often result in a delayed diagnosis claim. Doctors routinely fail to properly interpret test results, and often fail to respond in a timely fashion to their patients’ complaints of abnormal signs and symptoms with all different types of cancers. If you were told a test was normal, only to find out months or years later that it was actually abnormal, or if you were complaining of concerning signs and symptoms long before you were finally diagnosed, you may be entitled to compensation for your delayed cancer diagnosis.
