A story of deep misunderstanding and misplaced loyalty

PRESSURE has increased on the Government to compensate victims of Dr Michael Neary.

This comes after a damning report into the activities of the disgraced obstetrician found health system failures contributed to his malpractice.

Tánaiste and Health Minister Mary Harney will meet representatives today of up to 140 women whose wombs were removed when Neary performed unnecessary hysterectomies at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda, over a 25-year period.
