Now here’s the best of what YOU had to say:

  • J&J’s Depuy Orthopaedics recalls hip replacement system. “Lawsuits over the ASR implant are piling up across the country, accusing DePuy of manufacturing a defective product, failing to warn patients and doctors of problems with the implant and negligence in designing, manufacturing and selling the product.”
  • Dr. Wes proposes Top 10 Most Powerful People in Your Healthcare. “Well, I’d like to propose my list — maybe not of a 100 people (frankly, nothing gets done if you have a committee of 100 people anyway) — but rather my own list of the Top 10 Most Powerful People in Your Health Care today.”
  • Stryker settles bone growth product claims. “It took less than 24 hours for Stryker Corp. to settle a lawsuit filed against its Bay State-based biotech division by Massachusetts attorney general Martha Coakley for $1.35 million.”
