Guest guest Posted June 28, 2000 Report Share Posted June 28, 2000 .......................REPLY........................ A toxicologist does environmental sampling, reviews files, esp medical files, MSDS sheets, labels, other expert's sampling data, scientific literature.............. and then does a tox evaluation on the victim(s) to establish temporal and spatial correlations between exposure and the development of acute and/or chronic symptoms consistent with the exposure.............and then testifies in court as an expert witness as to whether or not the symptoms are consistent with the exposure to that particular chemical. I have handled about 900 cases since 1976 and have been a professor at the Univ of Florida teaching toxicology and currently teach tox/OSHA HazMat at the Univ of North Fla. I consult on about 100 new cases a year all over the US.....50/50 plaintiff and defense. RESUME ... www.bcity.com/lipsey77 .....or .... <A HREF= " http://www.bcity.com/lipsey77 " >LIPSEY RESUME</A> My most important job is to do the " worst case " kind of sampling in homes and offices to get the needed lab proof of exposure and then to set-up exams with labs and MD's to get the needed clinical proof of injury from toxic encephalopathy, liver enzyme effects, PFT effects, immunotox effects all the way down to cognitive deficits from a neuro-psych exam. The " Associates " in LIPSEY & Assoc. are MD's and PhD's who are tops in their fields, ie Dr. Tom Callender, Dr. Kaye Killburn, Dr. Alan Lieberman, Dr. Ray Singer, Dr. Jack Thrasher, etc. I work with some of the finest toxic tort attys in the US. The judgments and settlements, where I have been the expert witness in toxicology, have produced from $20 million, to $10 million (Nashville-vs Terminex RE: MCS) to $5.7 million (formaldehyde/cancer of the throat), to $3.7 million to " Tens of Millions " (Dow Chem./Dursban crippling of a child-Atty Callwell, Chas, WVA), etc. A few have lost their lawsuits for various reasons. I hope this information will be useful to you. Most toxicologist consulting for chem companies appear to be pharmacologist,ie prescription drugs where their are fewer lawsuits so they have moved into pest control accidents, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, etc. A good MD, good toxicologist and esp a good attorney at essential to a successful case.

He said I was nuts and sent me to a 'shrink.' I didn't know I had Porphyria or MCS - but I knew I WAS being poisoned by something! As it turned out, I was right on target! It's a good thing I got laid off back in 1992 or I might not be here to write this! Thanks for the info, Dr.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 ALL READERS; I have also had Dr. Lipsey in my home to do testing. I think he did an excellent job and certinally knows is buisness. I do not want to get invilved with the controversy that is going on with people downing him. He in my books knows his work and I felt very confident in his testing of our home. He has been handeling cases for my attorney and I think they think highly of him. If any one has any bad comments they should not be mouthing off on line and make a fool of themselves. AMEN GOD BLESS ROSE MARY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 22, 2001 Report Share Posted October 22, 2001 I cannot believe that anyone would use this form to bash Dr. Lipsey. He has served as an expert witness for me and always does a credible and excellent job. What is wrong with posting a simple message about your activities.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2001 Report Share Posted October 22, 2001 I think if any one has any thing bad to say about Dr.LIpsey.........KEEP IT TO YOURSELVES.......This group is supposed to stick together and help one another .....and let us keep it that way. We need each other for support and that is what I thought this group was all about AMEN GOD BLESS ALL ROSE MARY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 22, 2001 Report Share Posted October 22, 2001 Funny. I thought this list was supposed to be about information, not blind " support. " When it is suggested that a practitioner may be violating state and federal laws (by doing unlicensed asbestos sampling), that is a serious matter that deserves serious consideration and a serious response. No matter how wonderful and knowledgeable a person might be, the law is still the law. > Message: 3 > Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2001 20:36:01 -0400 (EDT) > From: ROSEBUDMAR@... > Subject: Re: Re: Dr. Lipsey > > I think if any one has any thing bad to say about > Dr.LIpsey.........KEEP > IT TO YOURSELVES.......This group is supposed to > stick together and help > one another .....and let us keep it that way. > We need each other for support and that is what I > thought this group was > all about ===== Jerrod Mason mason@...
