Dr Veronikis needed in Australia too. He was to come here @GregHuntMP @AlboMP @DrVeronikis but surgeons told govt they could remove mesh. They can cut but not do full removal. Aust Women worse off after surgery, not better #meshlies #noethics #meshkills #nohelp #meshclinicfarce

I think the $’s help Drs sleep and many are justifying it and want to still use it. Remember Burch Colposuspension took hours + mesh takes 20 mins so they could quadruple plus their income. No wonder mesh companies showed Drs on ski trips and driving sports cars to promote it

It’s the same in Australia and Doctors day they can remove it but then women wake following surgery to find that only a few cms is gone. There’s always a reason it wasn’t removed. They won’t admit they lacked the skill and lie to government @GregHuntMP
Sadly, the situation is the same on the island of Ireland. There are no removal services for any type of #mesh. Desperate women looking for financial assistance from others worse off than themselves. It's inhumane that health is being sacrificed for surgeon's egos.

Sadly doctors lie/misrepresent the truth to patients to “protect” them (or themselves?) @DrVeronikis states a full removal is never less than 10cms but others claim full removal with small pieces, leaving the rest to fray and move around causing harm in the body. #banmesh #nopoly

The State of California is suing transvaginal mesh manufacturer’s for US $1 Billion. Complications of mesh include death, pain, bleeding, infection, organ perforation, autoimmune problems & more. Doctors in Australia take note...STOP IMPLANTING #MESH It destroys lives.
California's $1 B trial over #pelvic #mesh kicks off. #medicaldevice via @CourthouseNews buff.ly/2lccf0G more on mesh lawsuits @Drug_watch buff.ly/2GxDrOE

Q: If the State of California has acknowledged, (by way of a $1 billion law suit against mesh manufacturers) that Transvaginal mesh causes devastating harm to women, have they banned mesh from being used in their state? If they haven’t, I find it hypocritical of them. #mesh

“Nobody should go for an operation that is supposed to help yet come out so badly harmed they no longer want to live”.
In Australia women are still being implanted with #mesh for incontinence on a daily basis.

There are so many injured women and finally the FDA has released the data to prove it. What about Australia? What is the TGA doing? I sent an adverse incident report but it went unacknowledged. TGA fails to release data or to support Women. Independent? No! @TGAgovau @GregHuntMP – at Perth, Western Australia
A major advancement for medical device transparency just seven months after the publication of #ImplantFiles. The @US_FDA release more than 6 million previously hidden incident reports for public view. bit.ly/2J54wK6
Save competition . Don’t allow yourselves to be locked in by the Banks. Healthy completion is always good to the consumer and the real estate market. facebook.com/416648971691540…
To date, about 2.5 Million Dollars in total has been spent by women using their OWN money, to fly to St Louis, Missouri, USA to have their mesh removed due to severe complications. And even though we have had a senate inquiry into transvaginal mesh. The govt has done nothing.
@GregHuntMP @DrVeronikis @HumanHeadline To date, $2.5m has been spent by women using their OWN funds to go to Dr Veronikis in St Louis to have a full removal .The govt has failed us badly. Some of us have sold assets, homes and used our last dollar to go to the world ‘s best.

offered to fund this expert mesh removal surgeon from St Louis to come to Australia to remove these meshes from women, that our very own surgeons cannot remove. What is wrong with this country!@GregHuntMP @DetPikachuMovie @DrVeronikis @channing_stella @ACORNStudios1
