OPINION
Opinion by
Chief Justice VALDEZ.
Appellant, Jose R. Carreras, M.D., appeals the denial of his motion to dismiss a healthcare liability claim brought by appel-lee, Julian Trevino. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(9) (Vernon 2008). In a single issue, Carreras contends that the trial court abused its discretion by finding that the statutorily required expert medical report was adequate because it was rendered by a physician who did not demonstrate his qualification. Id. § 74.351 (Vernon Supp. 2008), § 74.401 (Vernon 2005). We reverse and remand.
