CONSULTING EXPERIENCE I have been involved in malpractice consulting, case analysis, deposition, and court testimony. I have found that years of clinical experience have been quite helpful in understanding and analyzing problems. Having served on and chaired the judicial and peer-review committees, I've been able to examine problems frequently related to initial treatment planning, correct diagnosis, and prognosis.
