Digital-health startups
Need clinical credibility for fundraising and sales, plus a builder who can sanity-check the build. Clinical advisory, validation review, and a “would a doctor trust this” audit.
The doctor who codes
Physician + AI consulting
I’m a practicing physician who builds production AI. I sit between your engineers and the clinical reality your product has to survive.
Positioning
The translation layer between AI and the bedside
Most clinical-AI teams have one of two gaps. AI teams have models but no one who can say “a hospitalist would never trust that output, and here’s the failure mode that gets someone hurt.” Clinical teams have domain truth but can’t read a model card, design an eval set, or tell a vendor’s demo from a deployable system.
I’m fluent in both mov eax, 1 and an H&P. What you’re buying is not “medical opinions” — it’s de-risking a medical-AI product with someone who has stood at both the bedside and the build: a real, active clinical license; a hands-on builder who can audit the actual code and eval harness; and translational-medicine literacy in study design, validation, and evidence thresholds.
Who this is for
Teams building or buying medical AI
Health systems & hospitalist groups
Vendors are pitching AI workflow tools and there’s no internal capacity to evaluate them objectively. Vendor/workflow eval, AI-readiness assessment, safety review.
Medical-device & pharma
AI features bolted onto devices and trials need translational and clinical input. Clinical input on AI features, claims sanity-check, study-design read.
AI companies building medical products
Need clinical validation plus eval-design help and a clinician-validator network. Eval-rubric design and red-teaming of medical outputs.
Investors & expert-witness work
Litigation or due-diligence that needs a clinician who understands AI systems. Written opinion, deposition prep, and tech due-diligence.
The ladder
Productized packages
Start with the 14-day retainer — the standing-advisor front door and the only click-to-pay tier. Larger engagements are scoped via an engagement letter.
14-Day Retainer the front door
$5,000 then $5,000 / 14 days
Your standing clinical-AI advisor for 14 days — kickoff strategy call, async review within a conflict-safe scope, and review artifacts. Begins as a one-time 14-day engagement; continues as a recurring $5,000 / 14 days, cancel anytime — only if it’s working. This is the place to start.
Start the 14-day retainer — $5,000Clinical-AI Audit Sprint
$15,000 fixed
A 2-week, fixed-scope deep review of one product, feature, or workflow. Written audit — clinical-validity assessment, top-5 failure modes with patient-safety severity, eval-design recommendations, go/no-go and remediation roadmap — plus a 45-min readout. Scoped via engagement letter.
Request an engagementStrategic Day
$6,000/day
On-site or deep-focus remote: workshops, vendor bake-offs, board prep, and due-diligence days. Half-day $3,500.
Request an engagementExpert Opinion / Due Diligence
$900/hr 5-hr min
Investor tech-DD on a medical-AI startup, or a written clinical-AI opinion. The most license-sensitive work — scoped under a separate engagement letter.
Request an engagementFractional CMO / Standing Advisory
$25,000/mo
Ongoing fractional chief-medical-officer for a medical-AI company — the deepest, highest-commitment tier. Standing strategic and clinical leadership, scoped under an engagement letter.

Verified Discharge — proof, not slideware
The same physician-engineer perspective, shipped as a product. Verified Discharge closes the transition-of-care loop a discharge order opens: it verifies every downstream dependency to CONFIRMED and trips the alarm on the first miss — PHI-free by design. The page runs a live, interactive demo on the actual verification engine over synthetic cases, so you can see the logic, not a screenshot.
Start with the 14-day retainer
$5,000 for the first 14 days — kickoff strategy call, async review in a conflict-safe scope, and review artifacts. Continues as a recurring $5,000 / 14 days, cancel anytime, only if it’s working. The fastest way from a warm intro to a standing engagement.
Secure checkout via Stripe — the button opens a one-time $5,000 payment for the first 14 days; it continues as a recurring retainer only if you choose to.
