Legal Part 1: A subpoena is not a party invitation

For most physicians, talk of court, lawyers, or subpoenas brings on a rush of anxiety. The medical and legal worlds can overlap in many ways. In this five part series, we’ll cover everything from the basics, to being a percipient or expert witness, to the dreaded malpractice lawsuits. Joining us as Guest Host, is Dr. John Rose, Professor of Emergency Medicine at UC Davis. This first episode is a sort of legal 101. We discuss the basics of the legal system and what what EM Physicians need to know. What kinds of experiences have you had with the legal system? Please share!
