Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion

Ms Terri Martin:

I do not want to be egotistical, but if I hear a consultant saying that the problem is not the mesh, I think to myself "Do you even have the credentials to have this job and this position of trust you are in?" This is the way I look at it now. It is not a reflection on us. As I have said, we trusted in those who were supposed to help us. It is not a reflection on us that they cannot fix what has been caused to us.
