Many thanks to Jordan Romano, MD, a board certified internal medicine physician and hospitalist. Dr. Romano has more than 10 years experience providing expert witness testimony and consultation, and he mentors physicians interested in this important and potentially lucrative service.
During our 30-minute conversation, we discussed the merits of testifying for the defense, plaintiff, necessary training, whether insurance is required, the percentage of cases that go to trial, and many other practical aspects of the expert witness role. Dr. Romano believes that it is the responsibility of all physicians to uphold the standard of care and support the medical-legal system, imperfect as it may be. He wishes that more physicians were interested taking on the responsibility of becoming an expert witness.
