This campaign must have started with Memorial Day. Non stop commercials about persona. What's the lawsuit horizon look like?
Keep hearing rumors that there were people that brought up issues long before persona launched and were swept under the rug? Why the rush now for lawsuits? Are we still not being told the truth? I understand seeing MoM lawsuit commercials but for a knee?? Things must be bad.
I hear they are gonna stop calling it personna and change the name to Hindenburg. Oh the humanity....

Was in the lounge yesterday and zimmer surgeon saw a persona commercial. Looked at the zimmer rep like he was gonna explode, then silently walked away. I wish it was on film for you all to see. Are you not telling surgeons about this and letting them find out as the patients ask them? I know letters get sent to facilities and offices, but nobody is opening shit.
No. I am not telling my docs, who have never put in a press fit knee, about a lawsuit regarding press fit implants. Any Stryker reps tell their Accolade only docs about Rejuvenate recall if they had never implanted one?
Patients don't care wether or not it's not the exact recalled implant. All they know is that persona knee is being sued on TV and their Dr is putting in persona implants. Talk about the worst possible marketing for that surgeon, and the fact that his reps hide information from him is hilarious. Thank you Zimmer for those extra 50+ joints I'll get this year from patients jumping ship.
Revising one on Monday. Looks like an inch of tibia was taking off and barely any distil femur. After reading the flexion/extension gap issues looks like this is the problem with this one.
