Physician support
Being named in a malpractice suit is isolating in a specific way: you’re advised not to discuss the case, which cuts you off from exactly the colleagues you would normally lean on. These are resources built for that situation.
Support through litigation
Dr. Gita Pensa is an emergency physician and Brown University faculty member who spent 12 years as a malpractice defendant, through two jury trials. She now coaches physicians going through the same thing — deposition and trial preparation, and the stress physiology that makes both harder than they need to be.
Doctors and Litigation
The podcast and the “Five Do’s and Five Don’ts After Being Named in a Lawsuit” guide are free. One-on-one coaching and the LEAP courses, which carry AMA credit, are paid.
Radiology claims
A radiologist asked to review a study for a malpractice case already knows something was missed — and someone looking for a missed finding will usually report one. That is hindsight bias, and it makes an ordinary second read weak evidence no matter who performs it.
Cleareview
Places the contested exam inside a set of ordinary studies, so the reviewing radiologist cannot tell which one is under litigation. Available as a ten-radiologist screening panel or as a single expert review set. You can register or book a demo directly, though in an active claim it is worth raising with your defense counsel, who normally commission expert review.
Disclosure. Both are paid services. Cleareview is operated by one of The Doctors Lobby’s founders.
