Providing individualized consultations for medicolegal case review, neuroscience practice development, physician wellness, and investment analysis

What We Offer

Medicolegal Case Review

Neurosurgical and neuroradiological cases are a common source of malpractice litigation. Attorneys are frequently approached by patients seeking redress, but deciding whether to take on a given case can represent a significant challenge. When evaluating the merits of a potential case, it is critical to consider violation of the standard of care, causation, and also possible damages to the patient. Our experienced team provides both an up-front assessment of the strengths of a potential lawsuit as well as expert witness services through deposition and trial. We also defend physicians unjustly accused of malpractice and work with hospitals to help review cases as part of quality/utilization review and for risk management purposes to assess potential liability.

Neuroscience Practice and Center of Excellence Development

Our team is prepared to assist every step of the way with planning, development, branding, and marketing of your center. This includes new projects as well as restructuring of existing programs. We perform local, regional, and national market share analysis, allowing centers to leverage their strengths and anticipate and compensate for potential areas of weakness. In contrast to other firms, we are not cheerleaders; we are “coaches”. We are here to analyze your situation and offer guidance to maximize your center’s potential. The process will include constructive criticism and honest analysis. We’re even available to help your physicians with challenging clinical cases once your center has launched!

Some questions we help physicians and health care systems answer:

  • What truly characterizes a neuroscience “center of excellence”?

  • What elements are critical to promote success?

  • What needs to happen behind the scenes to drive profitability?

  • What metrics should be put in place to determine whether things are working?

  • Should we sell our practice and become employed by our hospital?

  • How about a PSA?

  • Are we being treated fairly by our hospital system?

  • Have we negotiated the best possible terms for our practice?

Physician Wellness

Over the past decade, there has been an increasing recognition of the dangers and risks associated with physician burnout. The challenge has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic prompting many mid- and late-career health care workers to opt for retirement. We can formulate a plan for individual physicians, small group practices, or large organizations to monitor and counsel physicians and allied professionals for the signs and symptoms of burnout. We can help you manage and also remedy the effects of workplace burnout, encouraging a healthier and happier work-life balance for physicians.  

Investment Analysis and Product Development

Over the past 20 years, the neurosciences have seen rapid technological advances, particularly in the management of stroke, spine, dementia, movement disorders, and brain tumors. These innovations have created opportunities for investors and funds that are seeking guidance on future market trends and financial upside of a specific device, therapeutic agent, or company. Our experts have worked with major industry leaders to evaluate the potential impact of changing practice patterns and disruptive technologies. Such analysis may be helpful to companies looking to invest in or capitalize upon these products or trends. We have worked with companies developing novel devices or drugs, with their competitors, with hedge funds, and with angel investors looking for advice and assessment of specific opportunities. 

Do you have an idea for a novel device or a company? We can help you develop that concept and turn it into a reality.
