We can tell you from experience that the complications and suffering that women can endure when vaginal mesh surgery goes wrong can be horrendous. We’re acting for women on a No Win, No Fee basis who are making claims for personal injury compensation because of problems they’ve experienced. With some women left unable to work or walk ever again, the continued use of these devices must be heavily scrutinised.

Elbow implant problems and Stryker recall
If you’re suffering with elbow implant problems, you may want to read this. The recent Stryker recall could be linked to any complications you’re experiencing.
Back in November 2017, a Field Safety Notice was filed for a recall of the rHead Radial Head and the Uni-Elbow prosthesis. In February this year, a medical device alert was put out by the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency). Urgent actin is to be taken, and any patient suffering should seek medical advice.

Having recovered over £1.3m in damages for victims of the PIP implant scandal, as well as representing Claimants in hip implant cases and other medical device actions, these kinds of claims are one of our primary specialisms.
