- Citation
- [2003] NZACC 78
- Court
- District Court
On the balance of probabilities appellant did not prove that Dr Rose fell below the standard of care; given the presenting symptoms consistent with irritable bowel syndrome, the use and result of ultrasound were reasonable and within accepted practice, the independent medical opinion was credible and ACC complied with s70, therefore no medical error under s36 was established.
