Brown Surgical Associates recently welcomed fellowship-trained trauma surgeon Brent Emigh, MD to the practice’s Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care.
A trauma, burn, acute, and critical care surgeon, Dr. Emigh’s professional interests include research in trauma outcomes and value-based care in acute care surgery.
“At Brown Surgical Associates, our goal is not only to provide the best surgical care possible in emergency situations but also to participate in clinical research that seeks to improve patient outcomes through innovative surgical techniques and trauma care management,” said Dr. William Cioffi, President of Brown Surgical Associates. “Dr. Emigh’s dedication to improving outcomes for trauma patients will make him a valued addition to our Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care.”
Dr. Emigh earned his medical degree from the University College Dublin, Ireland. He completed his residency in general surgery at the Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin. Dr. Emigh went on to complete his fellowship training in trauma surgery and critical care at LAC+USC Medical Center and the University of Southern California.
“I’ve lived and worked in many places across the US, Canada, and abroad, and the biggest factor when deciding where to establish a practice was a sense of community,” Dr. Emigh said. “Both Brown Surgical Associates and Rhode Island, as a whole, welcomed my family and me with open arms and immediately made us feel right at home. But being part of a community also means giving back, and I am looking forward to the opportunity to help injured Rhode Islanders in their times of need.”
Dr. Emigh is now seeing patients at 2 Dudley Street, Suite 470 in Providence, RI, and can be reached at 401-272-1800
