The Estate of Steven Anderson appeals from an adverse judgment in this medical malpractice case against Praveen Prasad, M.D., and the Iowa Surgery Center, P.C., claiming the district court abused its discretion in allowing Dr. Prasad to testify regarding the standard of care when he was not designated as an expert under Iowa Code section 668.11 (2019).
