In some cases, women feel that the only way forward is to opt for private mesh removal surgery when suffering problems after a vaginal mesh procedure.<\/p>\n

We represent a number of women who are claiming for compensation having suffered pelvic mesh complications. We know how bad it can be, especially when some patients are left unable to walk or work at all. We know of cases where women have struggled to get help and advice form the NHS, and cases where patients are waiting over a year for referrals.<\/p>\n

You may feel that you have to take matters into your own hands and go for private treatment and surgery. This can be factored into a claim for compensation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Claiming compensation for private mesh removal surgery<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You may be eligible to claim compensation for the costs of private mesh removal surgery and treatment. We can obtain expert evidence as part of the case, and if the need for private treatment is justified, there is the option to recover the costs for it.<\/p>\n

It may be the case that you pay for private surgery and \/ or treatment and then recover the costs back as part of a case. Where a claim is looking to be successful, we could ask for an interim payment from the Defendant to cover the costs. This is a part-payment that can be issued early before a claim is settled, and it usually covers costs and expenses.<\/p>\n

What should you do?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In terms of whether you should wait for NHS help or go for the private option, it\u2019s really down to you.<\/p>\n

We can fully appreciate why you\u2019d want to have private mesh removal surgery, and it may be that it\u2019s the only option to avoid your life being completely on-hold. If our privately instructed expert supports the need for it then it can be justified. It can be the case that the Defendant potentially compensates you more for suffering for longer because you can\u2019t get help quickly enough with the NHS, or they fund costs for surgery on the basis it will aid your recovery. It can therefore be within their interests to fund it, and there’s a duty to mitigate the extent of your losses (i.e. take steps to ensure for a quicker recovery).<\/p>\n

No Win, No Fee representation <\/strong><\/h3>\n

We\u2019re happy to represent you on a No Win, No Fee basis for a vaginal mesh compensation claim<\/strong><\/a> if you fit our criteria.<\/p>\n

We can help people claiming in England and Wales, and we can look to recover the costs of private mesh removal surgery as part of a case.<\/p>\n

Our lawyers are fighting for justice in over 42 different group and multi-party actions, and this includes women claiming compensation for mesh procedures gone wrong.<\/p>\n
