WarDocs - The Military Medicine Podcast
Health & Fitness:Medicine
Dr. Russ Kotwal spent nearly 30 years in the military and served on 12 deployments with 75th Ranger Regiment. He stayed with the Ranger community to become the Regimental Surgeon and then U.S. Army Special Operations Command. He is a master parachutist, master flight surgeon, has five bronze stars, two Joint Service Commendation medals for Valor, and two combat jumps.
Dr. Kotwal describes how physicians can apply the medical knowledge learned in the training, in his case Family Medicine residency, Master of Public Health, and Aerospace medicine residency to their medical practice, no matter how unique the practice. He is credited with numerous novel training and technology initiatives and numerous publications on battlefield casualty trauma care. He discuses the literature that was most influential to special operations care and how they derived the data by connecting pathologic evaluation to data and then implementation on the battlefield.
This is part 2 of a 2-part series where Dr. Kotwal gives an inside look into the medical care of the most elite infantry unit in the world. This is a must listen episode.
