BROAD RANGE OF EXPERIENCE
“My prior military service has made me a more well-rounded physician. As a Naval Flight Surgeon for three years, I was solely responsible for the medical care of my squadron’s pilots, navigators and support crew, particularly during deployments to Bermuda and Iceland. I also served as the Navy’s sole ENT on board the USNS COMFORT, a trauma-care ship, for three years. Lastly, after graduating from my residency I continued at Bethesda Naval Hospital as an attending physician, teaching the medical and surgical aspects of ENT to medical students and residents.”
RESPECTED BY COLLEAGUES
“Hospitals do not grant the privilege of performing procedures at their facilities to everyone. Only after rigorous, meticulous peer review are hospital privileges extended. I am honored to be associated with these fine hospitals, surgery centers and academic institutions.”
