I’m Dr. David W. Ford, a board-certified general surgeon with decades of surgical experience and clinical insight in both urban referral centers and smaller, rural/community hospitals (now practicing in Vail, Colorado).
My clinical practice includes minimally invasive and robotic surgery—especially cholecystectomy and hernia repair—as well as emergency and acute care general surgery.
Initially hesitant, I agreed out of a sense of responsibility to give back to the profession that had supported me during my own litigation experience. What started as a single review became a rewarding and ongoing part of my career.
Through case review, I discovered that I could provide attorneys with a clear, objective analysis of complex medical issues. I have a unique ability to synthesize medical facts and explain them in straightforward, layman’s terms, helping legal teams understand both the strengths and weaknesses of a case. This process not only benefits the attorneys I’m working with but has also enhanced my own practice, as I spend even more time carefully explaining and documenting patient care.
