BETHESDA, Md. - illiNews -- Suburban Hospital, a member of Johns Hopkins Medicine and the state-designated trauma center for Montgomery County, proudly welcomed back nationally recognized trauma surgeon and federal medical leader Dr. Alexander L. Eastman to deliver the keynote address at its annual Critical Issues in Trauma Conference.
Dr. Eastman, who began his medical journey at Suburban Hospital in the mid-1990s as a trauma resuscitation technician, returned to share lessons from over two decades of leadership in high-risk, high-pressure environments. His keynote address, titled "Crisis Leadership: Lessons from Our Nation's Heroes," explored the vital role of preparation, decision-making, and communication in navigating complex emergencies.
Drawing on experience from trauma surgery, tactical law enforcement, disaster response, and federal emergency operations, Dr. Eastman highlighted the leadership traits that allow teams to withstand chaos and deliver under pressure. He emphasized the necessity of after-action reviews (AARs) and constant readiness, reminding the audience that "preparation is not glamorous, but it is the most meaningful work we do."

Currently serving as Senior Medical Officer for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Dr. Eastman continues to influence national clinical preparedness and emergency medical planning.
The Critical Issues in Trauma Conference brought together trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, nurses, EMS crews, residents, and students from across the Washington–Baltimore region. This year's focus included leadership in trauma care, inter-agency collaboration, and resource-constrained management, which aligned closely with Dr. Eastman's multidisciplinary expertise.
Beyond his operational leadership, Dr. Eastman is also a published scholar in trauma care and emergency response. His recent research includes a 2024 study on trauma systems at the U.S. border and a 2022 publication on leadership in mass-casualty incidents. He is a voting member of the Joint Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, helping shape national trauma guidelines.
