I would talk to Dr Kolb, she probably would be your best bet. She has spoken out on stuff like this a lot for many years, and I'm sure would find a problem with this. (adding this crap to the implant) She may write a statement, Try her. Email her @ drkolb@... Love

Subject: Would any of our doctors testify as an expert witness?

I talked to a malpractice lawyer yesterday about my implants. The implanting doctor put Ancef, an antibiotic, into them when he put them in which contaminated them from the start and Dr. Blais verified they had faulty valves. The lawyer said that I would need another plastic surgeon to be an expert witness who would say that not only was it wrong to add anything to the implants (breech in standard of care) but it made me sick as well. Would any of our doctors testify as an expert witness in individual cases? I'm pretty sure I can do this as an individual malpractice suit against my doctor and still be part of a class-action. Any ideas???Thanks.Pam
