What REALLY happens when you’re named in a malpractice lawsuit?
In this eye-opening episode, Joe Rodriguez sits down with Paul Lefebvre, lead claims professional and risk advisor, and Andrew Clark, head of business development at Physicians Preferred Medical — an anesthesia-specific malpractice carrier — to pull back the curtain on malpractice litigation. From the first call after an adverse event to depositions, defense strategies, and courtroom realities, this conversation is packed with must-know insights for every CRNA, anesthesiologist, and anesthesia group leader.
We talk about why most anesthesia lawsuits are defensible, how to avoid career-derailing mistakes, the truth behind insurance carriers and legal strategy, and what separates providers who bounce back from those who don’t. This is not just about risk — it’s about resilience, smart choices, and protecting your future.
