PHS Testimonial: “Responsive, thoughtful, and pragmatic”

09/01/2019


As a Public Health Service Officer serving the behavioral health needs in isolated frontier communities, I was understandably worried when an adverse privileging action was taken against me. Practicing in isolation, with agency antagonism, and without federal division support, left me vulnerable to personal injury and professional jeopardy. I retained Attorney David Sheldon who immediately acted to protect my interests. Responsive, thoughtful, and pragmatic, Mr. Sheldon (himself a prior Navy attorney and well versed in the uniformed service) was able to get the decision reversed and my position secured. I highly recommend him for any uniformed service member. It is money well spent!
