Todd Villines: Getting the Latest Technology to Service Members Worldwide

In the United States the availability of the latest technology can vary depending on geographic locations in some cases. This can be a greater problem for service members stationed around the world.

Working at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Lt. Col. Todd C. Villines, MD, has some of the best military equipment available to help patients whether they are stateside or flown in from overseas. Villines said there are other high level medical facilities around the world that also provide excellent care for military patients but there are other areas that still need to be addressed in the field. One of the biggest areas he said they are working on is providing care to not only the service mebers but also their beneficiaries who also need the same level of technology available to them as well.
