About Dr. Peter Rigby


Peter Rigby

Peter Rigby, MPH, DPT

Peter served as Director of Rehabilitation and Head of Emergency Preparedness at Northwest Swedish Hospital in Seattle, WA, where he was responsible for safety during natural disasters and medical emergencies. His leadership was grounded in the ability to think clearly under pressure, consider all variables, and make evidence-based decisions that protected lives.

At EPI, Peter applies that same mindset to injury evaluation. He doesn't just assess data — he investigates context, analyzes edge cases, and asks the right questions to understand why a client may fall outside expected recovery norms. His ability to explain those outliers clearly and logically gives attorneys the clarity they need to build stronger, more defensible cases.

Peter's insights are especially valuable when:

  • Medical narratives are unclear or disputed
  • Injuries don't align with average statistical outcomes
  • A case hinges on interpreting complex function and causation
