We are excited to announce that one of our Emergency Medicine physicians, Dr. Misha Ownbey, is part of Army Military Civilian Trauma Team Training program.

OHSU is one of two hospitals nationwide participating in the new Army Military Civilian Trauma Team Training program, also called AMCT3. The program has a total of 10 Army medical personnel working alongside civilian trauma medical staff at OHSU and Cooper University Hospital in Camden, New Jersey. 

Participating soldiers are integrated into existing health care teams at both hospitals. They seamlessly serve alongside their civilian counterparts, wearing the same scrubs and performing the same duties. So much so that patients may not realize an active-duty military medical professional is treating them.
