A study by Therattil et al. (2017) has revealed that those engaging in plastic surgery lawsuits are more likely to win their case if they have a Board Certified plastic surgery expert witness. It also revealed a growing number of lawsuits, plus that defendants have a greater success rate than plaintiffs.
The study, entitled “An Analysis of Malpractice Litigation and Expert Witnesses in Plastic Surgery” was conducted by 5 authors: Paul J. Therattil, MD, Stella Chung, BA, Aditya Sood, MD, MBA, Mark S. Granick, MD, and Edward S. Lee, MD. It was published in the Open Access Journal of Plastic Surgery.
