Autorenporträt

Dr. Larry J. Miller practiced emergency medicine for more than 30 years in one of Texas' largest inner-city hospitals. Since training at Chicago's Cook County Hospital, where he earned the Intern of the Year Award in 1966, he has personally treated more than 130,000 emergency patients. He was chairman of the Emergency Departments of the 5 Baptist hospitals in San Antonio for more than 15 years and Medical Director for 10 EMS agencies in South Texas for more than 30 years. Dr. Miller was the founder and CEO of Vidacare Corporation, and the developer of the EZ-IO. Dr. Miller was granted more than 144 patents for Vidacare technology and received FDA clearance for 18 indications. Dr. Miller published over 27 research papers. He received the Innovation of the Year Award from the Wall Street Journal in 2008 for his development and commercialization of the EZ-IO and Medical Device Innovation of the Year from the Wall Street Journal in 2012 for his invention of OnControl. Dr. Miller earned the Humanitarian of the Year Award from the University of Michigan in 2017. Since selling his company to Teleflex in 2013 he has been practicing Urgent care medicine and provides faith-based medical missions in El Salvador and Spring Branch, Texas. Doctor Miller is one of the few practicing emergency physicians whose career spans the period from the uncontrolled bedlam, before EMS and paramedics came into existence, to today's structured, regimented, and often over-controlled medicine. Through this vast experience he has encountered some truly incredible situations. Dealing with them has given him a unique insight into the intense drama of doctor/patient encounters.
