OPINION

MATHIAS, Judge.

Leighton C. Johnson, Jr., M.D. ("Dr. Johnson") appeals the trial court's judgment awarding prejudgment interest to James and Paula Eldridge ("the Eldridg-es") at a rate of 8% for forty-eight months. Dr. Johnson appeals raising seven issues, which we combine and restate as:

I. Whether the trial court abused its discretion when it allowed prejudgment interest despite the filing of a partial satisfaction of judgment;

II. Whether the trial court abused its discretion when it awarded prejudgment interest under the "good cause" extension of time in Indiana Code section 34-51-4-6;
