Medical Record Review Services
Attorneys rely on accurate medical record review to establish causation, identify standard of care deviations, and evaluate case viability. My surgical critical care background enables rigorous interpretation of complex medical documentation that spans emergency departments, operating rooms, intensive care units, and rehabilitation facilities.

Most life care planners come from nursing, allied health, or physiatry backgrounds. I am a board-certified surgeon who operates on and manages critically injured patients every day.
