dr Bierstedt
As Dr Bierstedt once told me on the phone when I asked about the M6 being approved in Germany and not in the USA; "we are not a banana republic in Germany".
So what are we here in the USA where the FDA cannot muster up the resources to make some forward progress in approving the M6 ? How does one find out where they stand. I think I'll make a few calls and also write to my congressman. That worked for me once in the past; Senator Lieberman got my issue sorted out pronto, but this might be a somewhat bigger challenge
Are they some lobbyists in DC working to keep this device out of the hands of the US surgeons? I'll keep you posted on my new project. Mike
