I speak at conferences around the world on the VBAC evidence as well as present Grand Rounds at individual hospitals. In my ongoing efforts to educate policy makers on the VBAC evidence, I have testified multiple times in front of the California Medical Board and a variety of other regulatory committees as well as have consulted on legislation and regulation in multiple states. I serve as an expert witness and consultant in legal proceedings so the court may make its deliberations on the medical research rather than conventional wisdom.There is a tremendous amount of misinformation and confusion surrounding VBAC resulting in considerable barriers to care. It has been my mission to ensure that these conversations are guided by the medical evidence and ethics that should be the foundation of individual decision making as well as larger policy decisions.
