Dr. Mike Simpson

My journey into pre-hospital care began as a Special Forces Medic and eventually became an emergency medicine physician assigned to the Joint Special Operations Command.   

  

I provide insight for product road maps and lead the global Safeguard team in all clinical matters, including developing emergency medical solutions and practical applications during real-time medical events. As Medical Director of PerSys Medical, I joined Safeguard due to the company acquisition, and it’s a move I’m proud of – our combined efforts will ensure technical development and clinical expertise are shared and implemented worldwide.  

  

Serving in the US military for over thirty years, I have occupied many roles, from Airborne Ranger, a Special Forces Medical Sergeant, and, ultimately, an Emergency Medicine Physician assigned to Joint Special Operations Command.  

  

I am passionate about putting innovative and effective medical products into the hands of those providing medical care at the tip of the spear.  

  

To unwind, I train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu up to four times per week as both a stress-reliever and a form of intense physical exercise – I find it to be the most physically and mentally challenging thing that I have ever done!
