Doctors and Litigation: The L Word

Experts and Testiliars: Part Two


Listen Later

In Part Two of 'Experts and Testiliars' we continue to explore the world of unethical medical expert witnesses and their impact on defendants and the litigation system. You'll hear a presentation of Dr. Pensa's own malpractice case, as well as verbatim expert witness testimony from her second trial (acted out brilliantly by Dr. Anand Swaminathan as the plaintiff's expert). We also discuss what physicians can do to help attorneys identify and disempower 'testiliars' during litigation, what 'standard of care' actually means, and what recourse physicians can take after their case is completed if they feel they have been wronged by an unethical expert. 

Louise Andrew MD JD, Greg Henry MD, and Jeff Segal MD JD add their expertise. 

More about Dr. Pensa can be found at doctorsandlitigation.com.
