Docket entry
992345 Sami v. Varn 09/15/2000 The trial court erred in holding that an obstetrician-gynecologist was not qualified to give expert testimony on the standard of care for a pelvic examination performed by an emergency room physician. Because the doctor satisfied both requirements of § 8.01-581.20, he should have been qualified by the trial court to give such expert testimony. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is reversed and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
