Meet and Greet - Dr. Sean Bush

Dr. Bush is a Professor of Emergency Medicine at the Loma Linda University School of Medicine in Southern California, where he is also on staff in the ER as an emergency physician and envenomation (venomous animal) specialist. He has had a lifelong interest in reptiles and venomous creatures. Dr. Bush has authored over 50 publications on the treatment of bites and stings and has lectured on the local, national, and international level. He has been featured in dozens of television documentary productions on several cable networks including Animal Planet, the Discovery Channel, National Geographic Television, PBS and others.

Recently Dr. Bush received a certificate of appreciation from the White House Medical Unit for VENOM ER. The Unit is keenly interested in the topic as they are always on snake alert at President Bush's Crawford Texas ranch when he is there. The White House Medical Unit uses VENOM ER for their training and told our Venom MD (and the President's namesake), "If there ever is an envenomation on the First Patient, we will give you a call for your clinical expertise."

Dr Bush also flies as a citizen volunteer with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Air Rescue Team. He currently lives in San Bernardino County with his wife A'me and an undisclosed number of snakes, lizards, spiders and scorpions. The couple has 2 children, Jude and Camille.
