Two medical witnesses will give evidence next week in the High Court action by a woman against a Dublin plastic surgeon who performed a breast reduction operation pa her in 1984. Mr Seamus O Riain is being sued by Ms Veronica Dunleavy (53), a mother of five, from Newbridge, Co Kildare.
Ms Dunleavy told the court how she felt horrified and mutilated after Mr 6 Riain performed an operation on her 12 years ago to reduce the size of her breasts. Mr O Riain denied he was negligent when he performed the operation.
Yesterday Mr Jack Fitzgerald SC for Mr O Riain, sought an adjournment until Tuesday when he would be calling two expert doctors to give evidence. Mr Justice Moriarty granted the adjournment.
