Retired doctor ‘showed hallmarks of brain trauma after Gwyneth Paltrow crash’
THE health of a retired eye doctor “deteriorated abruptly” after actress Gwyneth Paltrow crashed into him on a ski slope, a court heard yesterday.
Dr Terry Sanderson, 76, was said to have been a “very high-functioning, high-energy person” before the collision.
But neuroradiology specialist Wendell Gibby said he later “suffered in interactions and had trouble multi-tasking”.
He said: “Terry had been a very high-functioning, high-energy person. Every day he was doing lots of things.
“Meeting groups, wine tasting, skiing, volunteering.
“But after his accident he deteriorated abruptly and many of the activities he used to do he stopped doing like dancing, for the most part, his skiing activities.

“His personal interactions with his children and grandchildren suffered and he had trouble multi-tasking.
“He would go to Home Depot and forget why he was there.”
He concluded that Dr Sanderson “showed the hallmarks of a traumatic brain injury”.
The doctor wants damages of £245,000 over the accident in Park City, Utah, in 2016.
