Specialties & Experience of this Expert Witness

Additional Information

I am a board-certified, actively practicing full-time internal medicine hospitalist physician and medical expert witness. I also have experience doing independent medical exams (IME). I am licensed to practice medicine in Utah. I am a recent Fellow of the American College of Physicians and am an active member of the American Medical Association and the Society of Hospital Medicine. I also have extensive teaching experience both formerly as an undergraduate teaching assistant as well as currently as an adjunct faculty member at two medical schools, frequently teaching medical students and/or residents on the inpatient wards and supervising their interactions and learning with patients. I have published multiple chapters in two different textbooks written for medical students and given several presentations as detailed in my CV. I enjoy talking with patients and teaching them about their diagnoses and treatment plans, as well as helping them to navigate the healthcare system. Making a difficult subject easy to understand for any level of health literacy is very important and a top goal of mine in every patient interaction. I enjoy working with both plaintiff and defense cases and am prompt in my responses and clear in my explanations.
