Dr. Jones shares his unique dual perspective as both a lawyer and a physician, offering practical advice on what to say, what not to say, and how to protect yourself while providing excellent patient care.

Whether you’re an emergency doc, resident, or any healthcare professional, this conversation is packed with critical insights that could keep you out of trouble when the spotlight shifts from the trauma bay to the witness stand.
