I rang my local main hospital (Stepping Hill Hospital, Stockport 0161 483 1010), they couldn't help and told me to contact my GP, they did say it wasn't a procedure they would do there.
So I rang my local GP surgery and asked if they could remove a Verichip implant. At first they wanted to know why I asked and I told them I was asking for an 'anonymous friend', they couldn't give me any information and said that I should get my friend to contact his GP if he had a chip implanted that he wanted removing to talk about it further.
I believe it would be messy and base it on a few facts I uncovered during research, one of these from the horses mouth is that it was put to Verichip that their implant may be dangerous as it could travel to different areas of the body. The reply to this was that this wasn't the case as body tissue would meld and grow around the Verichip lodging it in place.
I'll look a little more deeply into this issue and get back to you.
