Defective Medical Devices and Implants

Imagine going through open-heart surgery to have a cardiac pacemaker or heart defibrillator implanted in your chest and later finding out that the device is defective and the subject of a product recall.

Imagine going undergoing surgery for a hip or knee replacement and, after weeks of physical therapy, learning the medical implant was defective.
