For more than 25 years, this neurosurgery expert witness has practiced in the areas of adult brain surgery, spinal surgery, cerebrovascular surgery, and peripheral nerve procedures. His clinical and surgical experience includes treatment of spinal stenosis, spinal fractures, spinal fusion conditions, spinal cord injuries, cerebral aneurysms, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures, and peripheral nerve compression disorders. He has also provided expert witness services for over 20 years through consultations, depositions, and courtroom testimony involving neurosurgical care and neurological injury matters.

A Fellow of the American College of Surgeons with fellowship training in vascular neurosurgery and critical care, he earned a Doctor of Medicine degree following undergraduate studies in psychobiology. His postgraduate medical training included general surgery internship training at Harvard Medical School–New England Deaconess Hospital, neurosurgical residency training at Yale University School of Medicine, and advanced fellowship training in vascular neurosurgery and critical care at Yale-New Haven Hospital. Throughout his career, he has maintained active hospital-based surgical practice involving operative neurosurgical treatment, trauma management, and neurosurgical intensive care.

A substantial portion of his work has focused on disorders affecting the brain, spine, spinal cord, carotid and vertebral arteries, and peripheral nerves. His expertise extends to intracranial pressure monitoring, head trauma evaluation, nerve sheath tumors, carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, spinal instability, degenerative spinal disease, carotid artery injury, vertebrobasilar disease, and neurosurgical critical care. His experience also includes carotid endarterectomy, stereotactic cranial procedures, spinal instrumentation and fusion procedures, vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, and treatment of spinal infections and tumors. In addition to surgical intervention, his work includes diagnostic evaluation, postoperative management, neurological assessment, and treatment planning for acute and chronic neurosurgical conditions.

His professional activities have included leadership roles within hospital surgical departments and participation in major neurosurgical organizations, including the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, and specialty sections focused on cerebrovascular surgery and spine and peripheral nerve disorders. He previously served as Chief of Surgery at Sarasota Memorial Hospital and held leadership responsibilities involving hospital executive and medical committee activities. Through both clinical and litigation-related work, he has evaluated standards of neurosurgical care, neurological injury causation, operative decision-making, spinal and cerebrovascular treatment issues, and long-term neurological outcomes associated with traumatic and degenerative conditions.
