Focused on catheter-based treatment of congenital and structural heart disease, he serves as an interventional pediatric cardiology expert witness with more than 15 years of experience treating children and adolescents. He has provided expert witness services in this specialty for over 10 years, including litigation consultation as well as deposition and trial testimony involving interventional pediatric cardiology procedures and standards of care.

He earned his medical degree and completed residency training in pediatrics, followed by fellowship training in pediatric cardiology with focused interventional experience. In an academic medical center, he serves as a tenured professor of pediatrics and directs a pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory, with additional responsibility for adult congenital interventional cardiac catheterization. He previously held a fellowship leadership role in pediatric cardiology. These positions involve oversight of complex catheter-based programs, supervision of interventional protocols, and responsibility for procedural quality and training.

His practice focuses on transcatheter management of congenital heart disease. Key areas of expertise include atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure, along with diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterizations. Procedural experience encompasses balloon angioplasty, stent implantation, balloon valvuloplasty, and transcatheter valve replacement. He routinely works with specialized catheters, occlusion devices, and implantable valve systems in infants, children, and patients with complex structural cardiac anatomy. In legal matters, this background supports evaluation of procedural indications, device selection, technical execution, risk stratification, management of complications, and comparison of interventional and surgical treatment strategies in pediatric and congenital cardiovascular cases.

He holds a Medical License in the State of California and is Board Certified in Pediatric Cardiology by the American Board of Pediatrics. He is also Board Certified in Adult Congenital Heart Disease by the American Board of Internal Medicine and is a Fellow of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Intervention. His professional activities include participation in national interventional cardiology initiatives and contribution to peer-reviewed cardiovascular literature through editorial and review roles. Litigation assignments have involved analysis of catheter-based procedural performance, device-related adverse events, and standards of care in the treatment of congenital heart defects, with opinions grounded in established interventional cardiology principles and clinical practice guidelines.
