Dr. Nudelman

Mitchell S. Nudelman, MD, JD, is residency trained in Family Medicine and licensed to practice both medicine and law.

Dr. Nudelman received his Bachelor of Arts in Biology from the University of Rochester (NY) and did research in RNA tumor virology at the university’s medical school as an undergrad. Studying abroad in Spanish, he earned his medical degree in 1983 from the Universidad Tecnológica de Santiago (UTESA). After completing his medical residency in Family Medicine at St. Francis Hospital in Wilmington, Delaware (through the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University), he attended the University of Miami School of Law full-time at night, while practicing medicine during the day.

Dr. Nudelman has wide-ranging experience and a very diversified background, all of which may be extremely valuable when litigating your case, including:

  • Vast experience as a Medical Director and medical expert. The medical review company that he founded, and still serves as Chief Medical Officer (Medical Director Solutions, LLC), has consulted for many insurance companies, prominent defense law firms, and Fortune 500 companies. His past insider experience, including having worked with many of the premier defense attorneys in Georgia and many other states, has given him critical insight into what might be expected from the other side in litigation.

  • Dr. Nudelman also has decades of experience locating, retaining, and then preparing expert medical witnesses. His unique education and training in both law and medicine enable him to help litigation teams navigate extremely complex medical-legal cases, even cases with pressing, rapidly approaching deadlines.

  • He is an expert on credentialing of physicians, medical necessity, workers’ compensation, and disability determinations, having reviewed tens of thousands of cases over the course of his career.

  • He served as the sole authorized Medical Peer Review Physician to the Georgia State Board of Workers’ Compensation for more than a decade (1998-2010).

  • Dr. Nudelman knows firsthand just what it’s like to be a plaintiff – because he was one. In 2008, after ten years of hard-fought litigation, Dr. Nudelman settled his own Whistleblower suit against CIGNA. The settlement for millions resulted in CIGNA’s subsequent adoption of evidence-based medicine coverage criteria that are published online and are transparent to the public.
