Working at one of the most advanced EMS agencies in the nation fueled my medical knowledge and was the driving force which led me into medical school. The skill set acquired as a medic allowed me to rapidly excel as a medical student. I can recall a strong sense of comfort and confidence when I started my clinical rotations. I still apply many of the principles and expertise developed at RAA with my work as Chief Resident and an Attending Physician. I am very appreciative for the opportunity RAA provided me and for the life long colleagues I’ve made.” EMS First Steps and Reciprocity Would you like to know more about becoming an EMS provider in Virginia?
