Re: display breast implants
You probably have a claim for medical negligence or misrepresentation but the bigger issue is what damages did this cause. IF the display implants were identical to what he would have ordered to insert, and if open exposure prior to placement does not cause any complications, then your claim would be very small indeed.
You indicate however that one is not silicone, is leaking, and has dust and dirt particles present on x-ray. I assume your present plastic surgeon has reccomended removal and replacement. If so, we may be able to help you in this matter. Please contact me or my legal assisstant Rae Pumphrey to schedule a mutually convenient appointment. www.walterlaake.com.
