I want to know if court gives more credence to experience over qualification of a doctor in case of a medical negligence trial. For example, one of my friend is a qualified general surgeon who has long experience in gynecological surgeries but no formal qualification for the later.
In case of any untoward event during a gynecological surgery, will his lack of qualification be given more credence than his long experience in such surgeries? Please give your valuable inputs in medicolegal perspective.
