YOUR SPECIALTY IS OUR SPECIALTY
Medical Protective was
founded by doctors
in 1899. For over a
century, doctors have
been involved in every
key aspect of MedPro’s
organization: claims,
underwriting, risk
management and patient
safety/protection.
Their involvement has improved
the healthcare delivery of
more than a million healthcare
providers throughout the
years; however, given today’s
rapidly changing healthcare
environment, we are not
satisfied to rest on our laurels.
Accordingly, MedPro has
recently established 16 specialty
boards comprised exclusively
of established doctors who are
experts in their specialties.

RISK MANAGEMENT RESOURCES
TESTIMONIALS
“From the beginning of a laborious two-year process, my attorney was thorough and detailed
in his preparation for every phase of my legal defense. His cross examination of the expert
witnesses for deposition testimony was thorough and skillful... In court, his knowledge of the
case and preparation became quite evident. He prepared me appropriately for my own time
on the witness stand and allowed me to present my case methodically and convincingly.
During the trial, his attitude was upbeat, positive and professional. He carefully dissected
every word of the plaintiff attorneys’ arguments and objected appropriately when things got
out of hand. He displayed great legal skill during the trial. The quick unanimous decision (40
minutes) from the jury in my favor is a tribute to his legal abilities.”

“The lawyers I met with were very knowledgeable and compassionate. I learned that having
an extremely competent, caring team at Medical Protective was truly a blessing for me. They
showed me that when I needed them, they were 100% committed to me. The premiums were
miniscule in comparison with my peace of mind.”
