Surgical Precision.
Legal Clarity.

Drawing on experience in vascular and cardiometabolic disease, I offer unbiased review and explanation of medical evidence to support attorneys in their assessment of complex cases. My role is to clarify the clinical context, identify pertinent findings, and communicate them in clear, medically accurate language for legal purposes.

Expert Testimony for Legal Proceedings

I conduct comprehensive reviews of medical records, evaluate the clinical issues involved, and explain the relevant medical findings in clear, objective terms for legal review. My role is to distill complex medical information into structured, medically accurate explanations that can be understood by the court and by fact-finders.


I focus on providing:

Medically informed analysis grounded in the clinical record

Logical organization that clarifies key medical issues

Clear, accessible language appropriate for legal proceedings

Consistent, measured communication when findings are examined in deposition or trial

Medical-Legal Case Expertise

Medical-legal experts are often involved when the medical record is complex, the scientific issues require clarification, or the standard of care needs objective evaluation. I assist attorneys by providing clear, medically informed explanations that help clarify the clinical context and the evidence at hand.
The types of cases I most often support include:


Peripheral arterial disease, including diagnosis, management decisions, and limb-salvage options


Vascular injury, whether occurring in the operating room or during endovascular and catheter-based procedures (e.g., cardiology, radiology, oncology)


Carotid artery disease, stroke mechanisms, and standards for evaluation and intervention


Aneurysmal disease, including assessment of rupture risk, imaging, surveillance, and treatment pathways


Vascular complications of critical illness, trauma, or critical care management


General standards of care in vascular surgery, perioperative decision-making, and postoperative management
