The Emergency Medicine Section is a group of individuals with emergency specialties that seek to bring more glory to God through their work in emergent and urgent situations wherever they are in the world. The purpose of our group is to unite, network, and embolden our collogues to propel the Gospel forward through the gifts and talents of medicine that God has entrusted to them. This is done through encouragement, showing His love, and challenging one another that the Gospel must go out as our profession give us many wide-open doors to share that News and tell of His love. We believe that we are called to a unique and special role to give supreme quality medical care in dire situations and take both physical and spiritual healing to the ends of the earth. We strive to implement and utilize current scientific evidence-based practices and give the most up-to-date level of care to all our patients, practicing and teaching those around us and to the next generation.
