/ Stories / Obstetrician Kristel Peters experienced a medical error that drastically changed her life.
After a deformity, Kristel underwent a corrective tendon surgery that resulted in a misalignment of her right ankle. This was an error during the operation that led to unforeseen complications.
The misalignment caused severe pain, instability, and loss of strength in her right foot. Due to overcompensation, she developed wear and tear in other joints. Kristel struggled to walk and was limited to wearing only a few types of shoes. Standing for long periods or walking on uneven surfaces like grass or sand became nearly impossible, making it difficult to attend events like weddings, concerts, or festivals. Running was completely out of the question.
Kristel needed acknowledgment and acceptance of the fact that her situation would not improve. Practically, she required insoles, physiotherapy, orthopedic shoes, and pain medication to support her mobility.
Letselschade Advocaat Amsterdam provided Kristel with legal support to secure recognition and financial compensation for her damages. Kristel found the legal assistance very personal and pleasant. She felt well-informed and relieved of worries as the attorney handled everything and kept her updated regularly.
