MinkMedLegalShlomo Minkowitz, MD — Medical-Legal Imaging Review & Expert Testimony
🩻 Independent Medical-Legal Imaging Review

Board-certified radiology expertise for litigation that depends on getting the films right.

Shlomo Minkowitz, MD is a board-certified diagnostic radiologist and neuroradiologist on faculty at Weill Cornell Medicine, providing independent imaging review, written reports, and deposition & trial testimony for personal injury and liability litigation.

About

A practicing academic radiologist, not a retired reviewer.

Dr. Minkowitz is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine and an Assistant Attending Radiologist at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, where his clinical practice spans general radiology — chest, abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal imaging — alongside subspecialty neuroradiology of the brain, spine, and neck.

He brings that same day-to-day clinical reading volume to litigation work: independently re-reviewing the imaging and records at issue, comparing them against the official reports, and producing a plain-spoken written opinion that holds up under cross-examination.

He has served as an imaging expert and record reviewer for both plaintiff and defendant on matters involving trip-and-fall, motor vehicle, and premises liability claims.
