Orthopedic Expert Witness
Orthopedic surgeries involve operations that involve the musculoskeletal system. The bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons may be injured in an accident or damaged from the natural aging process. Surgery can correct the issue to relieve a patient’s pain and enhance the quality of life.
Common orthopedic surgeries include:
- Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) surgery
- Arthroscopy procedures
- Hip replacement
- Joint fusion
- Knee replacement
- Shoulder surgery
- Spinal surgery
- Trauma
- Fractures
- Hand surgery
- Ankle surgery
However, in some cases due to negligence or procedural error, complications can occur.
Selecting the right orthopedic surgeon for expert testimony is crucial to the litigation process.
