Dr Rob Arntfield is a trained emergency physician, intensivist, and traumatologist here at London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC). Passionate about the use of ultrasonography and teaching, Dr Arntfield co-authored Point of Care Ultrasound1 (POCUS), which was published in 2014. A self-described London “townie”, he attended Western for medical school and continued in his hometown for a double emergency medicine and intensive care residency before pursuing a fellowship in New York City. We sat down with Dr Arntfield to discuss his work in critical care, trauma, and the rise of POCUS in trauma medicine.
