Families of children treated by surgeon Yaser Jabbar at Great Ormand Street Hospital in London are pursuing compensation claims.

The Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) has already opened an investigation after concerns were raised.

 

Allegations of mistreatment were first reported in the Sunday Times over the weekend. 

 

It is believed that claims are being pursued by families of children who were treated by Jabbar between February 2018 and May 2022.

 

In response to press reports, Great Ormond Street Hospital has now released a statement.

 

The hospital said: ‘We take the issues raised in the article incredibly seriously and know they will be worrying for patients and families. We are deeply sorry to all patients who received poor care and understand that this may have had a significant impact on their health and wellbeing.

 

‘In 2022 we asked the Royal College of Surgeons to review our paediatric orthopaedic service, after concerns were raised by a number of our patient families and staff. As part of this, we are carrying out a review into the care of some of our patients. We have written directly to all patients and their families whose care is being reviewed so please be assured you would have been contacted if we are looking at your care. The surgeon who is the main focus in the media coverage has not worked at GOSH since 2022.'
