4Additional Information
I did my neurosurgical training at the Medical College of Virginia now called Virginia Commonwealth University. I also completed a one-year fellowship in Neurotraumatology. I am a diplomate in good standing of the American Board of Neurological Surgeons. My first twenty-three years of practice experience was as founder and partner in a robust private neurosurgical practice in metro Atlanta. Since then, I have worked as an employed neurosurgeon at several hospitals around the country. Currently I hold a medical license in the states of North Dakota, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, Wyoming, Nevada, and Virginia. I also hold an IMLCC or Compact License currently recognized in thirty-seven states and soon to be more. Throughout my career I have treated thousands of traumatic brain and/or spine cases. My surgical tally is easily in the tens of thousands of cases involving the brain and spine. Over the last eighteen months I have developed a medicolegal consultancy concentrating primarily upon personal injury type cases involving the spine and brain. To date since 2024, I have performed over 12 IMEs (Independent Medical Examination) and CMEs (Comprehensive Medical Examination). While maintaining a rigorous locum tenens practice with renowned healthcare systems such as the Cleveland Clinic Hospitals and Intermountain Healthcare, I have reviewed and offered professional opinions in over 60 neurosurgical related cases. I have also been retained as a neurosurgery expert by the U.S. Department of Justice. I stand ready to travel from my home in Florida should the need arise. I pride myself in my rapid, yet thorough reviews of nuanced cases resulting in shortened turnaround times if required. Please feel free to reach out at any time. I stand ready to serve.
