As a former project manager for Sentara Hospitals, chief psychology resident at Eastern Virginia Medical School, the crisis & trauma team supervisor for First Hospital Corporation, and a trained Critical Incident Stress Debriefer for first responders, Doc Brown has first-hand knowledge of the stressors of the professional as well the appropriate protective factors required to best function in these environments. Doc Brown is extremely proud that his introduction to the medical and healthcare profession began as a Certified Nurse's Aide at Eastern State Hospital in Williamsburg, Virginia.
