Supreme Court of Virginia March 8, 1985, Record 821492 (Grubb v. Hocker)

RUSSELL, J.,

delivered the opinion of the Court.

The sole question on appeal from a defendant’s summary judgment in this medical malpractice case is whether the trial court abused its discretion in ruling that the plaintiffs proffered medical expert witness did not have sufficient familiarity with the applicable statewide standard of medical care to express an opinion thereon.
