Additional Information

Board-certified orthopedic surgeon (ABOS) in active clinical practice, fellowship-trained in Upper Extremity Reconstruction and Sports Medicine. I perform independent medical examinations and record reviews for work injuries, motor vehicle accidents, and second opinions — covering neck and back pain as well as upper and lower extremity injuries. Over nine years of medico-legal work I have completed 500+ IME examinations and provided testimony in 45 depositions, retained by both plaintiff and defense counsel. My opinions are evidence-based and rendered the same regardless of the retaining side. Drawing on extensive insurance utilization-review experience, I provide clear, defensible analysis of treatment necessity and cost, maximum medical improvement (MMI), apportionment, causation, disability and impairment, and symptom magnification. My reports are thorough, prompt, and written to withstand cross-examination. Based between Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio. Licensed and available to travel for examinations and testimony in New York, New Jersey, Florida, and Texas.
