Additional Information

I am a fellowship trained expert in regional anesthesiology & acute pain management from the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, currently working in Denver, Colorado. My areas of expertise include orthopedics, spine, genitourinary, labor & delivery, and trauma surgical cases, as well as acute pain management for a variety of different patient populations. I have worked with peer review committees, am the chairman of several different orthopedic surgical programs, and am currently the head of trauma anesthesia at AdventHealth Littleton. Along with a committee of other fellowship trained regional anesthesiologists, I organize two different sets of block workshops every year to bring my partners up to date on current updates in regional anesthesiology and current standards of care for the aforementioned surgical specialties. We, as said committee, are dedicated to ensuring that our entire group practices the most up to date, safe, and effective anesthesia techniques for all our patients. Regional anesthesia lends itself to a high quantity of adverse outcomes, and I feel my training gives me the qualifications to be a very valuable expert witness expert witness.
