Just saw a screening of documentary @bleedingedgedoc. Gutsy filmmaking @ medical devices - with the lens turned on our society. The patient stories leave you shaken, but the neglect by our government leave you outraged. Fuel for change. On @netflix Friday. https://t.co/oQIYUrFhoP
For #PatientSafetyDay, pledge to watch @bleedingedgedoc this FRI 7/27 on @Netflix. Learn more about the $400 billion medical device industry’s lax regulations and profit-driven incentives—and how you can protect yourself + your loved ones.

The New York Times chose The Bleeding Edge as a NYT Critic's Pick!
"The Bleeding Edge” isn’t an anti-medical film, but a look at calamities caused when the obsession for profit overwhelms an industry."

Just learned about this evil product, #Essure, today while watching @GMA. It has been destroying women's lives since 2010. Shame on #Bayer.
Men have balls. Really? Then stop making women scapegoats for your egos. A #vasectomy is a 10-minute office... https://t.co/4iIcEjwl9q
Bayer Pharmaceuticals announced that it will no longer sell the permanent birth control implant Essure starting at the end of this year. https://t.co/4YmyX3Dzdo

Everyone is saying that women have been saved by Bayer's decision to stop sales of Essure. No one has really been saved and the problem isn't solved. Thousands of women are still struggling with severe side effects and cant get it removed. #Essure#Essureproblems
The new doc from Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, The Bleeding Edge, deals with implanted devices, including a dangerous birth control device called Essure... which was pulled off the market today, a week before the film’s release on Netflix. A success even before release.
What about revoking Essure's PMA? Bayer has completely disregarded PMA and CPMA requirements. The #FDA has essentially acknowledged this publicly. Why is Bayer afforded any legal protection after harming 40,000 women??? #Essure#EssureProblems
