Diagnostic Radiologist, Expert Witness

Bob Hurwitz, M.D. has 34 years of private and academic experience in Diagnostic Radiology. He is a full-time practicing radiologist, capable in all sub-specialties. Dr. Hurwitz is the first to recommend someone better qualified in a field that requires someone more specialized in a focused area of radiology.

In thirty-four years, he has testified on radiologic issues such as:

• Standard of Care
• Communication with Clinical Colleagues
• Child and Elder Abuse
• Complications, expected and unexpected
• Medical patent infringements
• Federal and state standards

During this time, he has found the additional role of serving as an expert witness to be fundamental in becoming a better radiologist.

He has served the legal community from Coast to Coast, testifying in both depositions and trials during this time. In 34 years, none of his testimony has ever been excluded by any Court.

• Testified in Municipal, State and Federal Courts
• Available to discuss matters seven days a week
• Telephone consultations about straightforward medical questions are performed without charge.
• All trial testimony is accompanied by dynamic PowerPoint presentations that clarify difficult topics for lay juries.
• Unbiased expert witness both for plaintiffs and defendants

Bob Hurwitz, M.D. has multiple medical patents but has turned these over to U.S. companies to avoid any conflict of interest. Familiarity with patent law has brought him several patent infringement cases. The largest in which he testified saved a major company $121 million dollars in claimed infringement.
