An Ayr gran has said she is “sceptical” of a new deal which will see women across Scotland able to travel to the US for mesh implant removals.
The new contract, announced by the Scottish Government last week, will see women who require the surgical removal of mesh implants offered surgery in Missouri, where Dr Dionysios Veronikis practices, as a potential treatment course.
The surgery will be free of charge, with associated costs such as travel and accommodation also covered by the NHS.
