Aviation Medical Examiner Clinic Established at NSU
Thanks to the expertise of John Pellosie Jr., D.O., M.P.H., FAOCOPM, chair of the Department of Preventive Medicine at NSU’s College of Osteopathic Medicine, NSU is now home to the Aviation Medical Examiner Clinic, which provides Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Class II and Class III flight physicals.
The clinic, which is located at the university’s Sanford L. Ziff Health Care Center in Davie, will be overseen by Pellosie, who has been designated by the FAA as an aviation medical examiner to conduct flight physicals. All pilots are required to get flight physicals to assure they are able to safely pilot an aircraft without being a hazard to the public, passengers, or themselves.
