Additional Information

I have been in academic practice for over 26 years and currently serve at the rank of Associate Professor of Clinical Anesthesiology. I have been the director of the alternate site anesthesiology service at our institution for 23 years. My primary areas of expertise are pediatric anesthesiology, obstetric anesthesiology, and sedation and anesthesia for cases performed outside of the operating room (radiology suites, GI station, etc.) However, I have extensive experience in all areas of anesthesiology with the exception of cardiac anesthesiology and chronic pain management. I am board certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology, as well as sub-specialty boarded in pediatric anesthesiology. I am fluent in English and conversational in Spanish and French, and have excellent writing skills and numerous publications. I have over 15 years of deposition and trial experience. Due to a contractual obligation, I am unable to serve as an expert witness for plaintiffs in the state of Florida. I am available to serve for defendants in Florida, as well as plaintiffs and defendants in all other locations.
