MountainMed PRO · Medical direction & oversight
Formal oversight for ski areas, SAR teams, schools, and expeditions — oversight that satisfies licensing requirements and builds systems your team will actually use. Modern wilderness medicine, not a hospital template.
Services
Formal physician oversight: protocol development, QA/QI programs, and credentialing pathways built for non-hospital providers.
Scenario-based, terrain-specific training — from hands-on field sessions to asynchronous, podcast-style modules your roster can do anywhere.
Pre-trip screening, altitude risk mitigation, acclimatization itineraries, custom kit assembly, and real-time telemedicine support.
Case analysis and testimony for ski area accidents, avalanche incidents, and wilderness emergencies — grounded in real operational experience.
Medical response frameworks for resorts, alpine events, expeditions, and camps — including controlled-substance programs done right.
Turning current findings in avalanche safety, snow immersion, and risk management into practice your team can apply.
Your medical director
Most medical directors bring clinical credentials. Few bring seasons on a patrol, rescues in real terrain, and a working knowledge of what your providers face when the weather turns and the radio crackles.
Dr. Fink is a board-certified emergency medicine physician and fellowship-trained wilderness medicine specialist serving as Medical Director for Mt. Bachelor Ski & Bike Patrol. He builds oversight systems shaped by the field — because he's in it.
He also hosts Wilderness Medicine Updates, a free podcast keeping austere providers current.
