Location: Addison, Texas United States


Company: Joseph Burkett MD LLC


Profession: Emergency Medicine Physician


Inspired by: I enjoy and am very thankful for my current occupation as an emergency medicine physician. It involves actively engaging with people who are in need, being challenged to come up with balanced and innovated solutions, and, at times, performing under austere and emergent conditions. As a practicing physician, however, I am limited by time and resources with regard to how much I can improve the wellbeing of my patients and our population as a whole. That desire to help, along with a strong curiosity, drives me to create and invent devices that can save lives, reduce discomfort, and advance medicine.
