February 28, 2018422 S.C. 196

Summary

The Supreme Court of South Carolina reversed the Court of Appeals, holding that the expert affidavit filed by Dr. Skudder satisfied the statutory requirements of S.C. Code §15‑36‑100(A)(3) even though he does not practice in the same specialty as the defending physicians, and that the issue was properly preserved for appellate review.
