Dr. Cullen The Wright State University Department of Emergency Medicine has an active toxicology service with one toxicologist on faculty. The toxicology coordinator, Natalie Cullen, M.D. , completed her residency in emergency medicine at Wright State University and completed toxicology training at Medical College of PA under the tutelage of Dr. James Roberts. Active toxicology-related clinical research and writing opportunities for medical students and residents are abundant.
Graduates are able to function as base station physicians and as medical directors.
The emergency medicine residents participate in EMS throughout their entire three-year curriculum. Residents spend eight to ten hours of each ED rotation engaged in prehospital activities. During the first year, residents are assigned to a specific local squad, in addition to spending time observing prehospital activities by riding with the Dayton Fire Department paramedics. First-year residents are encouraged to participate in continuing education activities for prehospital personnel. In the second year, residents become associate medical advisors for local squads.
