Ronny Otero, MD, MSHA

I am an Emergency Physician with twenty years of clinical experience. My career has been devoted to serving the communities in which I practice, teaching undergraduate medical students and residents about our great specialty. Moreover, I have always striven to contribute to the academic mission of the hospitals in which I have worked by engaging in research and scholarship. SAEM is the premier organization that represents physicians who continuously work towards advancing the specialty of Emergency Medicine. As such, I have been active in SAEM since I was a resident. Since joining, I have served as a member of several interest groups and academies over the years. My experience as a clinician, researcher, educator, and administrator will provide a solid background for consideration as a member of the Bylaws committee. My knowledge of the practice of academic Emergency Medicine allows me to provide expertise in issues which the Bylaws committee will likely deliberate upon. I pride myself on being able to consider innovative solutions to problems frequently encountered in our specialty. If there is an area in which I do not have a sufficient fund of knowledge, I will study the problem and simultaneously call upon my extensive network of colleagues to seek the expertise needed to help guide our SAEM board.

If selected for the Bylaws committee, I will strive to provide excellent, detailed, and thoughtful counsel to the board so that all of our communities receive evidence-based and equitable care.
