In recognition of National Veterans and Military Families Month, our #HHSVeteransSpotlight is celebrating #veterans like Dr. Thomas Burklow, MD, FAAP, FACC, who is a retired Colonel, recipient of the Bronze Star Medal, and medical doctor at The National Institutes of Health (NIH). As the Director for Education and Training at the NIH Clinical Center (CC), Dr. Burklow oversees a portfolio of training and education programs. He joined CC in 2017 after a 30-year career in Army medicine, including 10 years as the Chief of Pediatrics at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “I greatly valued my military career, but I equally value my career that I now have here at the NIH,” Dr. Burklow said. “When I think back on my time with the Army, one of the things I remember most fondly were the people. So, when retiring from the Army, I was seeking another environment where I could develop camaraderie and partnerships, both professional and personal – those were important to me. “And with the Army, I always enjoyed being part of something that’s bigger than myself, and I think the same thing applies being here at the NIH.?To be part of institutions that look out for the well-being of the American public means a lot to me.” #NationalVeteransandMilitaryFamiliesMonth #PartofSomethingBigger

Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to go down the road to the University of Maryland Baltimore County for an MOU signing ceremony with U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of traveling across the country for numerous MOU ceremonies with institutions of higher learning, but there is something truly heartwarming in providing public service opportunities for the students in my local community. #HHS #HHSASA #ASACampbell
