Cardiovascular Disease

My initial position was as a fulltime academic cardiologist at a medical school, as Director of the Cath Lab, and Acting Chief of Cardiology at a teaching hospital, with patient care, teaching and publishing responsibilities. Following 3 years in that position, I was in fee-for-service private practise for 7 years, then in practise combining fee-for-service and managed care patients for 22 more years. I am currently a Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine at UCI, seeing patients and working with Cardiology Fellows.
Following Internal Medicine Residency , I served as a physician in the US Army Medical Corps as a Major, serving in Vietnam from Aug '71-Aug '72, where I was awarded the Bronze Star, and at Fort MacArthur, California, from Aug '72-July '73. In September '05, I served as an invited lecturer and consultant in cardiology at one of the two largest teaching hospitals in Japan.
Over the past 30 years I have been involved as an expert witness in 80-85 malpractise cases, working with both the plaintiff and defense sides, , and I have received uniformly excellent feedback from all of the attorneys with whom I have worked.
