It has become almost a Monday morning ritual in Central Pennsylvania – the reports of the murders and shootings from over the weekend. The gun violence doesn't just happen on weekends but it seems to be more prevalent on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. It used to be that most shootings occurred late at night or in the early morning hours, but now it's not unusual to hear gunfire in broad daylight or an innocent person being hit in the crossfire or by a stray bullet. Most of the shootings are in the region's cities and most often the victims are young Black men. Dr. Dale Dangleben is the Trauma Medical Director at Penn State Health Holy Spirit Hospital in Cumberland County and he has treated many of these gunshot victims or worked to save their lives before they died.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 16 —  A God-fearing trauma surgeon struggles to cope with human atrocity in the wake of a mass shooting / Dr. Alan Tyroch, Chief of Surgery and Trauma Medical Director, University Medical Center of El Paso. His grades were so poor that Dr. Alan Tyroch almost didn’t get into medical school. But the stubborn Texan was not about to let something as mundane as bad grades get in his way. Fueled with frequent, sometimes heated, conversations with God and blessed with sheer grit and perseverance, Dr. Tyroch not only fulfilled his dream to become a trauma surgeon, but also helped develop University Medical Center of El Paso’s top-notch trauma program. Tyroch’s motto, “You play like you practice,” came true on August 3rd, when the medical center was flooded with victims of a mass shooting in which a gunman, armed with an AK-47, killed 22 and wounded more than two dozen people at a local shopping center. Fresh from a recent city-wide disaster drill involving mass casualties, Tyroch says everyone, including the housekeeping staff, worked as a unified team to save as many lives as possible. Tyroch says he’s acutely aware of and working to allay the post-traumatic stress that many medical personnel, including on his team, experience in the aftermath of these types of events. But despite his own nuanced understanding of “good” and “bad” deaths, developed over nearly two decades as a trauma surgeon, Tyroch says he still fights the outcome when a patient dies on his watch.

I'm Chitra Ragavan. This episode is brought to you by Good Story, an advisory firm helping technology startups find their narrative. My guest is Dr. Alan Tyroch Chief of Surgery, Trauma Medical Director and Chief of Staff at University Medical Center of El Paso. Dr. Tyroch also is professor and founding chair of the Paul Foster School of Medicine's Department of Surgery. He's an appointee on the governor's emergency medical services and trauma advisory council. And an active member in the Regional Advisory Council on trauma and emergency healthcare. Chitra Ragavan:   Dr. Tyroch was in the unenviable position of helping to direct and manage the trauma care after the August 3, 2019 mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, in which a 21- year old gunman armed with an AK-47 killed 22 and wounded more than two dozen people in a local shopping center. Dr. Tyroch, welcome to the podcast. Dr. Alan Tyroch:   Thanks for having me. Chitra Ragavan:   Tell us a little bit about yourself. Dr. Alan Tyroch:   Sure. Well, first of all, I'm a fifth generation native Texan and extremely proud of it. I'm from Czech heritage. My families came here from either Moravia or Bohemia, which no longer exists, either in the 1850s or 1870s. Depends on what side of the line. Either my mom or dad side. So I grew up in Texas, and very proud of that. I grew up actually in Central Texas. I was born in Temple, Texas. Then when my father retired from civil service at the VA hospital there, he moved us to my great grandfather's farm. The same farm that my mom was born at. She was actually born at home. Dr. Alan Tyroch:   That's where I grew up. I went to Texas A&M for undergraduate. I got a degree in microbiology. I was interested in the sciences. I decided I wanted to be a doctor but actually before that I couldn't decide. "Should I be a veterinarian, or a doctor. Do I want to take care of animals, which are easy to handle. They don't argue or do I want to take care of humans." That's what I wanted to do. To be honest, my grades weren't the best. I was not the worst in class, but I wasn't the highest either. I struggled to get to medical school. It was clear I was going to have a super high battle to get into medical school at the time. I even decided at one point that this is just not...
