I like my doctor and don’t want to sue him. Would a Physiomesh lawsuit be filed against my doctor?
You would not be suing your doctor. Your doctor likely had no way of knowing the Physiomesh™ had a higher failure rate when he or she used it to repair your hernia. A Physiomesh product liability lawsuit would name the manufacturer of the defective hernia mesh, Ethicon, Inc. and its corporate parent, Johnson & Johnson. Your doctor would not be sued. A product liability lawsuit seeks to hold the manufacturer of an unsafe medical device or product liable for the harm caused.
