Martin to discuss Neary case with Medical Council
Health Minister Micheál Martin is due to meet officials from the Irish Medical Council later today to discuss the implications of a €270,000 damages award to a woman who had her womb removed by Dr Michael Neary.
The High Court awarded the damages to 37-year-old Alison Gough after finding that Dr Neary, an obstetrician at Our Lady's Hospital in Drogheda, Co Louth, unnecessarily removed her womb 11 years ago.
