I received my MD degree and completed an internal medicine residency at Baylor College of Medicine, and since then have practiced both in outpatient and hospital medicine. I am a Fellow of both the American College of Physicians and its hospitalist subsidiary the Society of Hospital Medicine. Since 2008 I have reviewed cases and testified as to standards of care, both in depositions and in trials. I have had  15 years’ experience reviewing medical records for attorneys; testified in over 40 depositions and 6 court cases. I am currently working part-time so that I am able to respond quickly to requests for review of medical records.
