Imminent Biotronik Recall?

I want to ask you to think of this. Why did the DM and the RSD over Las Vegas get let go? There are many speculations you could make about the fact that these two are now gone. It is much easier to unload direct employees than monster independents. Bio is basically split up now between corporate and Western Medical.

You have your facts wrong.

The two RSD's that you are talking about are in charge of the Southwest and Pacific Northwest areas. More about not needing these people anymore (Biotronik let go of 5 RSD's total) than what you are trying to imply. Keep spreading the rumors and those areas will just keep beating the shit out of you on the playing field.

Good Luck

You sir have your facts wrong. 5 weren't let go. 4 were and one took a "sales job". Bio had no choice. They had to fire someone to create an appearance of compliance once they were backed into a corner. One was necessary, the other was spite. What is true is that they clearly didn't fire the offenders, but the messenger and the crony. Bio historically keeps anyone who drives and grows business. Managers walk the line of helping to create an environment for their type of business to flourish and keeping it under control. As goes with their title, managers will take the fall, unless they can drive more business than the offenders do. And to the opinion that they weren't needed, their credit cards were the reason they were needed as well as creating an army of retained consultants, trainers and speakers for what is still up for debate. I dont think they're beating the shit out of many, just sweeping market share proportional to whom they've recruited. Those who do go over realize they either better be cashing out at the end of a good career or swing for the fence. The reputation which may have been hard earned is now slightly stained by greed and filth.
 






Yes, isn't the DOJ in the midst of investigating? You have been requested not to delete important documents and all that blah blah blah. So as to pretend that your whole 4% market share didn't come from shady dealings, you must have forgotten what or rather who got you where you are today. Sales don't increase 900% for nothing. And rumors aren't just made up, they are based on truth.

You're insinuating that what is said of Bio are rumors. Credit card receipts, consulting contracts, study documents etc compared to sales numbers are a a bit more tangible that here-say.
 












Why don't you all go back to the Boston Scientific board and bash the shitty and unethical company that you are stuck working for, or the St. Jude board were you just paid another fine to the DOJ and continue to pretend that you didn't, or Medtronic which has the worst reliability of any company ever...

Let the regulatory companies investigate everyone and lets just see what happens. Biotronik is not going away so get ready to deal with 4 vendors on the your next contract!

The device did not explode. The patient felt it heat up and at no time did the device fail or not deliver therapy. The device was explanted and replace with a new ICD. Patient and Physician are both pleased with results.

Once again you loose "Flame Boy"

oh really?? prove him wrong then. Looks like you knew about it all along...didn't cha? Were you also instructed what to say about it? ...reading your reply sounded like Bush's speeches..all coming through his ear piece! I bet you've said it like 1000 times since then..
crawl back into your cave dude, either accept the facts or if you chose to lie about it and act as it never happened then simply stick to it. Liar.
 












Above is my original post. So, fu to all of you lying Nazis who said I was full of Sh*t.


You are full of shit you BSX stooge! The entire letter that you were informed of was written by the BSX Distributors country manager in Slovakia. Their has never been an official communication about this from the government.
Biotronik inspected the ICD and it was found to have a random component failure. No patient injury or adverse events occurred. The device was replaced and patient is doing fine.
Now if you don't believe me call the BSX Country Manager in Slovakia his name is
Mr. Pavel Bohdal. He is the Country Manager of the Boston Scientific distributorship in Slovakia!
You should also note that BSX reps in the US were informed to cease and desist in using this "marketing" approach due to slanderous and baseless accusations.

All recalls begin with "random component failures". I'm a BSCI rep and learned about this failure on this board. I have not seen a cease and desist order. Just keep denying and covering up your issues. I'm sure it will work out for you.

You are a mouthy looser. Why don't you call your lead council Dan Gerhan and get bitch slapped if and when you are caught spreading lies.
