We wanted to mention an important achievement by one of our physicians from earlier this year.

Marshall, Jr., MD, JD, FAAEP, FAADM, Brookdale’s Chairman of Emergency Services was awarded the distinguished AAPS Degree of Fellow by the American Academy of Disaster Medicine (AADM), an affiliate academy of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc.

Among those present at the event were Dr. Louis Sullivan, former Secretary of Health and Human Services and Dr. Regina Benjamin, US Surgeon General.
