Additional Information

Double Board-Certified Pediatrician & Pediatric Cardiologist | Independent Medical Consultant | Expert Witness Where medicine meets the courtroom with clarity and credibility. Complex medical records shouldn't slow your case down. I help attorneys translate medicine into clear, defensible legal insight through independent medical consulting and expert witness services. I am double board-certified in General Pediatrics and Pediatric Cardiology and hold a Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Clinical Research. I provide independent medical consulting across all medical specialties, helping attorneys evaluate medically complex cases with confidence. Expert witness services are provided exclusively in pediatric and congenital cardiology. I work with both plaintiff and defense counsel, providing objective, evidence-based opinions supported by current medical literature, accepted clinical guidelines, and years of clinical experience. Medical Consulting Services • Early case review and merit screening • Medical record review and chronology development • Standard of care analysis • Causation assessment • Medical literature review • Identification of strengths and weaknesses of potential claims • Medical terminology interpretation • Expert reports and litigation support Early consultation often helps attorneys determine whether a case has medical merit before investing significant litigation resources. My goal is to identify key medical issues, simplify complex medical records, and provide practical insight that strengthens litigation strategy. Expert Witness Practice My expert witness practice focuses exclusively on pediatric and congenital cardiology, including: • Congenital heart disease • Fetal cardiology and fetal echocardiography • Pediatric echocardiography • Myocarditis and cardiomyopathy • Arrhythmias and inherited channelopathies • Syncope and sudden cardiac death • Cardiac arrest and resuscitation • Kawasaki disease • Pulmonary hypertension • Endocarditis and pericardial disease • Postoperative congenital heart disease • Pediatric cardiovascular emergencies In addition to clinical practice, I have experience in academic medicine, physician education, and clinical research. My graduate training in clinical research strengthens my ability to critically evaluate medical literature and apply evidence-based medicine to medicolegal questions. I have authored peer-reviewed publications, presented scientific research, and participated in the education of medical students, residents, fellows, and practicing physicians. Whether reviewing medical records, preparing expert reports, or providing deposition testimony, my commitment remains the same: delivering independent, objective, scientifically supported medical opinions that help attorneys understand the medicine behind every case.
