Patient Support Group Formed for DePuy ASR Patients

A patient group is to be formed, for those people affected by the failure of the DePuy ASR prosthetic hip joint.

It is hoped that the group will allow the opportunity to meet other people who have been affected, to discuss concerns and experiences on an informal basis.

While the group will be organised and run by the patients themselves, the first meeting is being arranged by Pryers Solicitors.

It is intended that the first meeting will take place in York on Saturday 12th February 2011.

If you would be interested in attending, please contact Richard Starkie.
