Founder & Principal Consultant

As a busy attorney, you need clear, actionable insights for the cases you accept—and you shouldn't have to navigate complex medical jargon alone.

I understand how overwhelming medical records can be. That is why I founded White Coat Medical Legal Consulting, LLC. As a doctoral-prepared physician assistant with nearly two decades of clinical experience across emergency medicine, burn surgery, spine surgery, and orthopedics, I translate complex clinical data into powerful legal strategy.

My consulting practice is explicitly focused on orthopedic and spine cases, where I provide comprehensive pre-litigation support, merit analysis, expert testimony, and detailed medical cost projections. Because I maintain active clinical practice in orthopedic urgent care, I quickly identify critical deviations from the standard of care and extract the key concepts needed to build a formidable case.

Beyond clinical practice, I am a dedicated leader and educator within the medical-legal community. I serve on the Judicial Affairs Commission for the American Academy of Physician Associates (AAPA), as Director at Large for the Academy of Physician Associates in Legal Medicine (APALM), and on the Government Affairs Committee for the Kentucky Academy of Physician Assistants (KAPA). I teach Healthcare Law for the Doctor of Medical Science and Doctor of Executive Leadership programs at the Arkansas College of Health Sciences.

My extensive background in PA education, risk management, and quality improvement means I don't just read charts—I understand the systemic standards that govern healthcare providers. Whether you need behind-the-scenes consulting or authoritative expert witness testimony for orthopedic medical malpractice and personal injury litigation, you are partnering with an accomplished public speaker and recognized expert.
