Excellent Speaker's Night

Huge thanks to Dr. Jeff Croke, MD.  You had us enthralled with your case studies & the practical application of so much of what we've studied in class.  Outstanding discussions, lessons learned, and preparation for future patrolling (and beyond).





And thanks to Ross Dakin, Presidential Innovation Fellow, for your remarks on the exciting new opportunities & developments in medicine at the federal level.   An exciting future!
