Lesson Introduction

Instructor(s)

Dr. Gregory Davenport

Gregory Davenport, DHSc., PA, has more than 40 years of professional experience in emergency medicine working in combat, disaster, and wilderness settings. Davenport began his career in the military, serving for nine years in Combat Casualty Care and as a Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape (also known as SERE) and personnel recovery specialist. In 1991 he left the military to attend PA education at the University of Washington. Davenport believes in ‘service through medicine’ and as a result, he has worked in extremely underserved populations of the U.S. and globally and responded to disaster settings around the world. Most recently, this service has taken him to Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Haiti, India, Nepal, Vanuatu, and twice to Mosul Iraq during its liberation from ISIS.
