BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN (DOUBLE) Medical Affairs and Medical Liaison / Pharmacovigilance / FDA / Matrix Work Environment / Medical Science Liaison / Clinical Research Trials / Drug Safety / Clear Understandable Communications / Experimental Design You know how pharmaceutical industry companies are always looking for: Untapped large patient populations with an abundance of particular disease states, Physicians, just like myself, with specialties in well defined areas of the medical field, that are able to answer or solve very specific questions or tasks, Established illnesses that are now much more commonly diagnosed, with better diagnostic techniques, in increasing numbers never expected, or prepared for, coming to light, Recognizing the reappearances of illnesses that had been previously dormant for extended periods of time, now appearing in unexpected populations, A way of increasing physician prescribing and patient compliance with medication regimes, resulting in markedly increases in sales and revenue, Improving communications and the state of affairs between the your company and other cohorts in the industry, between the pharma industry and the biotech / medical devices / insurance industry and that between your company and prescribing physicians / their patient clients, Dedicated physicians that have the skill sets to find, utilize and advance the industry. My individual approaches and strategies to correcting, solving and filling in those gaping holes and unaccomplished goals, as listed above, stem from my greater than 20 years of academic and clinical medical knowledge and experiences, along with my own personal healthcare experiences. The combination of all these experiences separates me, while making me a more experienced and better problem solver, from the rest of candidate pool. Over those 20 years, I have come across, learned and utilized the same skill sets that are needed and desired by the pharmaceutical industry today. I am an innovative and dedicated academic and clinical physician with training in emergency medicine, orthopedics and pain management. My contributions include improvements in the quality and outcomes of patient care and turnarounds of underperforming emergency room units. Backed by a solid foundation of research early in my career, I developed practices that have become standards of care and created widely-accepted research models. I am looking to leverage my clinical experience to contribute in a pharmaceutical setting.

My ability to make positive impacts in new environments derives in large part from my numerous core skills that include:
Developing methods and training to improve care and industry standards Along

with hospital work patient medical affairs / liaison and pharmacovigilance Applying emerging technology and practices to enhance outcomes Streamlining and standardizing processes to improve efficiency, medication compliance and cost control Communicating clearly and efficiently with all companies, physician and patient groups along with international colleagues and media representatives Living out of one bag for extended periods of time, while feeding my passion for information sharing, learning and teaching national and international colleagues Maximizing the benefits of alliances with medical device, biotech and pharma companies

A Fellow of the American College of Emergency Physicians (FACEP), I am extensively published. I earned an MD degree from the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and a BA in Anatomy & Physiology with Summa Cum Laude from the University of California at Berkeley (where I was admitted to Phi Beta Kappa). I completed an Internship in General Surgery, and a Fellowship in Orthopedic Surgery Clinical Research at The Hospital of The University of Pennsylvania and a Residency in Emergency Medicine at Medical College of Pennsylvania. I was then Board Eligible in Emergency Medicine. One year later, I became Board Certified in Emergency Medicine. I am a Diplomate of American Association of Pain Management (Board Certified), as well as a Founding Member and Fellow of American Academy of Emergency Medicine. I completed 350 Category I CME credits between December 2010 and May 2011.

SELECTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND RESULTS DEMONSTRATING HIGHLY DESIRABLE SKILL SETS Cut costs, improved outcomes with low-cost protocol. Incidence of patients presenting to ER at Temple University with acute exacerbation of asthma was rising and costly. Recognizing role of dehydration as an aggravating factor, implemented protocol based on immediate IV infusion of fluids to acute asthmatics. Achieved 37% reduction in need for admitting asthma cases by rapidly ameliorating attacks. Promoted medical data cards. Identified lack of instantly available medical history data as significant impediment to providing care due to difficulty in obtaining accurate data from stressed/incapacitated patients. Initiated program of educating patients to carry medical information data cards in their wallets. Promoted program in 40 different hospital emergency room programs. Program was precursor to growing movement towards electronic cards. Developed widely-accepted arthritis model. Conducting clinical research at U. of Penn. on use of electricity to treat arthritis, saw need for standard model to assure reproducibility of

results. Developed and demonstrated efficacy of a new animal model. Won acceptance of model in degenerative arthritis studies in more than 20 countries. Developed standard emergency protocol. At the Medical College of PA, part of team that observed recognized probability was 50% that any emergency room patient over 60 years of age presenting with abdominal pain would need to be admitted. Promoted this statistic to become part of standard training for all emergency medicine residents nationwide in evaluating patients with abdominal symptoms. Trained 75 hospitals on new orthopedic technique. As part of team at University of Pennsylvania, developed a subscapular technique for reducing anterior shoulder dislocations that is faster, easier and less painful than previous methods. Demonstrated technique around the country, helping to make it a standard of care. Enhanced reliability of vital signs data. Conducted my own 10-year study, assessing causation and corrections for unreliable body temperature recording by nursing staff. Identified cause as presence of ear wax adjacent to the tympanic membrane causing false reading of intra-aural canal temperature takings. Demonstrated rectal temperature readings to be gold standard of reliability in patients not susceptible to oral readings.
