SANDER J. BREINER, M. D.
CURRICULUM
VITAE
I have testified in court in a variety of cases for the
claimant or the defendant as expert or attending psychiatrist. The cases have
included murder cases, major financial litigations, divorce, etc. My testimony
has been in Probate Courts, District Courts, State Courts, Federal Court, and
Social Security Administrative Hearings.
Clinical experience: State and City Psychiatric Hospitals,
State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, Detroit House of Correction, Psychiatric
Clinic for Paroled Prisoners, Veterans Administration Psychiatric Clinic,
Detroit Public Schools, Detroit Commission on Children and Youth Delinquency
Prevention Project (Chief Psychiatric Director), and psychiatric consultant
International Center for Urban Studies.
With two colleagues we established the Impaired Physician
Program for the State of Michigan; and rewrote the basic licensing and
investigating procedures for physicians in Michigan. This was based on my work
as chairman of the Michigan Psychiatric Society Ethics Committee and the
Committee on the Impaired Psychiatrist. Similar work was done in founding the
same program for the Oakland County Medical Society.
