Chat with US Army Physician Leader Dr. Kevin Chung, Graduate of the Military Academy at West Point and Georgetown University School of Medicine. He served in the US army burn center and directed research over the last 12 years.
In addition to numerous medical and surgical research awards, COL Chung shares “My recent work at a COVID community hospital reminded me of my deployment in a combat support hospital in Iraq and Afghanistan.” To help the public empathize with the urgency and gravity that this COVID pandemic places on patients AND caregivers, Kevin urges others to come walk into a COVID hospital and see what it’s like in the hot zone. “On some days, the best we can do is have family members watch their loved ones from behind a window to say goodbye.” Dr. Chung urges us all to unite to amplify the truth and arm ourselves with reliable health information. He concludes with a powerful leadership legacy story.
