3x Board Certified MD: Geriatrics-Obesity-Int Med

Specialties & Experience of this Expert Witness

Additional Information

I am a triple board-certified physician (Internal Medicine, Geriatrics, and Obesity Medicine), licensed in Florida and Texas, with over 20 years of combined clinical and academic experience. I offer expert witness and consulting services in cases involving geriatric care, elderly abuse and neglect, geriatric syndromes, functional and cognitive decline and disability, personal injury, obesity medicine, chronic disease management, among others. In addition to my clinical work, I have held academic and leadership positions in medical education, which have strengthened my ability to communicate effectively—not only in precise clinical terms for professional audiences, but also in clear, accessible language when explaining complex medical issues to judges, attorneys, and jurors. Since 2024, I have served as a medical expert in legal cases addressing standards of care, disability assessments, and complex medical conditions across the lifespan. My services include thorough chart reviews, expert analysis, evidence-based medical reports, and testimony in numerous depositions. In addition to traditional practice, I have firsthand experience in telehealth and concierge medicine—two evolving models of care that present unique legal challenges. These models often involve distinct workflows, patient expectations, and care delivery structures, all of which may affect how the reasonable care standard is interpreted in litigation. My familiarity with these systems allows me to offer valuable insights into documentation practices, patient safety issues, and risk exposure. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, enabling me to communicate with cultural sensitivity and linguistic precision. I am available to consult on behalf of both plaintiffs and defendants and take pride in delivering timely, objective, and clearly articulated medical insights tailored to the legal context. If your firm is seeking a reliable, experienced, and communicative medical expert, I would welcome the opportunity to collaborate.
