1Opinion of the Court
Ellington, Judge.
In this medical malpractice case, Sharon Ellis 1 sued Wallace D. Mays, M.D., and his practice, Wallace D. Mays, M.D., P.C. (collectively, “Mays”), alleging that Mays misdiagnosed her pancreatitis and, as a result, performed unnecessary abdominal surgery. Mays filed a motion to exclude the testimony of Ellis’ expert witness, contending the witness was unqualified to testify under OCGA § 24-9-67.1. The trial court denied the motion, but signed a certificate of immediate review. We granted Mays’ application for interlocutory appeal.
