Additional Information

May I introduce myself; I am a Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon residing in Minneapolis MN, and would like to offer my services in performing IME’s, Disability Consulting, Depositions, Court Testimony, and Medical File reviews. Licensed in MN and CA, I have a clean disciplinary record, with no pending or recent complaints or malpractice claims. Hand and thumb arthritis forced my retirement from my Orthopedic Surgery practice 2 ¾ years ago, but I have elected to resume medicine in the above listed areas. My prior practice focus included upper and lower extremity care, orthopedic sports medicine, fracture care, non-surgical spine care, arthritis management, and extensive joint replacement experience of the shoulder, hip, and knee. Although I do have prior experience in IME’s, Depositions, and court testimony, I have completed SEAK Inc. training in IME exams and reports, multiple types of Medical File reviews, and ongoing course work with the AMA Guides. I have broad-based experience in speaking to and writing brochures/manuals for the lay public, radio and TV media presentations, professional team physician coverage, Assistant Clinical Professor in Family practice for FP resident teaching, and Orthopedic presentations to professional organizations. I am very comfortable and experienced in serving as a physician team member on multi-disciplinary committees. Full CV available on request. I am experienced with Word, Excel, One Note, Dragon Dictate, WinZip, MS Teams, Outlook, and Zoom. Personal attributes I would highlight include honesty and integrity in dealing with peers and patients, congenial and polite communication skills, intuitive, consistent timeliness in completion of medical records, and well-organized writing skills directed toward the lay audience. I am easily accessible, and able to respond on short notice to your requests. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
