Additional Information

I am a Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon residing in Minneapolis MN, offering my services in providing 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 have resumed my practice in Legal Medicine. My prior practice focus included broad exposure to 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. I have enhanced my prior experience with IME’s, Depositions, and Court Testimony with SEAK Inc. training in IME exams and reports, multiple types of Medical File reviews, Expert Witnessing and Depositions, along with ongoing course work with the 6th edition AMA Digital 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 planning committees. Full CV available on website. Along with 70+ IMEs, I am experienced with Word, Excel, One Note, Dragon Dictate, Grammarly AI, LinkedIn, Outlook, Zoom, and multiple medical search databases. Highlighted personal attributes include honesty and integrity in dealing with peers and patients, congenial and polite communication skills, intuitive, consistent timeliness in completion of concise detailed medical reports, 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.
