I am a board-certified Emergency Medicine Physician, with over 20 years of experience. After attending University of Minnesota, he completed residency at Maricopa Medical Center in Phoenix, AZ. To this day, he continues to actively care for patients across a broad spectrum of ED’s, from a Level 1 Trauma Center with comprehensive Stroke & Cardiac care, to stand alone Emergency Departments & smaller hospitals that have far fewer available resources.
Prior experience in case reviews and depositions, including both plaintiff & defense. Attended SEAK’s How to Start, Build & Run a Successful Expert Witness Practice & SEAK’s How to Excel as an Expert Witness in Medical Malpractice Cases. My initial interest in this career came after my own personal deposition, in which my lawyer remarked "you should look into being an expert witness".

I am a board certified emergency medicine physician, and actively practice at a level I trauma center, as well as a smaller community hospital. Additionally, I am an assistant professor of emergency medicine at the University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix, and actively teach in their simulation and innovation center. Teaching medical students for over eight years has given me extensive experience in teaching complex concepts in easy to understand terms.
I became interested in medical expert witness work while sitting on my hospital's medical staff quality committee, which reviews the quality and safety of patient care. Medicine is an imperfect science, and the care delivered to patient's can be incredibly nuanced, and sometimes there will be poor outcomes. You will find that I will be meticulous and honest in my review of the case. I will strive to deliver a well researched and candid opinion.
I look forward to working with you.
