Most-quoted passages

3 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Chesonis v. Brown · Nunez v. Albo“[E]xpert medical testimony must be presented at trial in order to establish the standard of care and proximate cause-except in unusual circumstances.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“It is true that, ordinarily, a practitioner of one school of medicine is not competent to testify as an expert in a malpractice action against a practitioner of another school. In light of the wide variation between schools in both precepts and practices, as a general matter this rule makes good sense. It has been judicially adopted in a majority of states, and we follow it here.”
