Bio
- I have been a practicing emergency physician since finishing my residency in 2003. I have worked with Utah Emergency Physicians since 2006; staffing the emergency departments for Intermountain Healthcare in the Salt Lake area. I have been involved in disaster medicine since 2001. I have been the medical director for the New Mexico Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT), and oversaw the care of thousands of patients after Hurricanes Frances, Katrina, and Rita. I am now the medical director for Utah DMAT, the Intermountain Center for Disaster Preparedness, and for Intermountain Healthcare?s Urban Central Region Emergency Management. My recent disaster deployments have included the earthquake in Haiti and the typhoon in the Philippines. I teach a disaster medicine course for the University of Utah. I develop policy in conjunction with groups including the Utah Hospital Association and the Utah Department of Health.
