with the medical defendants that Dr. Conner is not qualified to render an expert opinion on the standard of care at issue in this case. As the medical defendants emphasize in their motion, Dr. Conner is a clinical psychologist who practices exclusively in Oregon. He is not a medical doctor or a nurse, he is not licensed to practice psychology or any medical specialty in Virginia, he has not received any formal training in Virginia, and he has not received any training regarding the provision of medical or mental health services in a correctional setting. Additionally, since Dr. Conner is not a medical doctor, the court is of the opinion that he is also not qualified to render an expert opinion on the issue of proximate cause. Cf. John v. Im, 263 Va. 315, 559 S.E.2d 694, 697 (2002) (<HOLDING>); Perdue v. Ford Motor Co., 1998 U.S. Dist.
