He and doctor Fukutaki will be discussing what motivates physicians to give bad testimony, what is the scientific process involved in rendering a medical opinion and what options exist for working with a difficult doctor to improve the testimony. Can a doctor be persuaded to admit that he is testifying out of his subject matter expertise?
