Biography

LCDR Greg Booth is a native of Zion, IL. He joined the Navy in July of 2010 when he commissioned through the Health Professions Scholarship Program. He holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis (magna cum laude) and a Doctor of Medicine from Northwestern University.

He completed an internship in Internal Medicine and a residency in Anesthesiology at McGaw Medical Center, Northwestern University. He served as Chief Anesthesiology Resident and was awarded the Dr. A Lawrence and Ellen S. Wilson Award for Advancing Clinical Education through Innovation for developing an electronically-driven arterial pump simulator for medical simulation. He was also selected as a Foundation for Anesthesia Education and Research (FAER) resident scholar.

In his current position, LCDR Booth serves as a staff anesthesiologist and as the Program Director of the anesthesiology residency at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth (NMCP). He is an Assistant Professor at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS). He also serves as a Vice Chair for the NMCP Institutional Review Board. He cofounded the Naval Biotechnology Group, where he has helped create a number of medical devices and translational research projects.

He was awarded the NMCP Anesthesiology Teacher of the Year Award in 2020 and the NMCP Medical Corps Junior Officer of the Quarter in 2019. He achieved 1st place in the Navy-wide Academic Research Competition in 2020 for applying machine learning to hemodynamic prediction and has multiple publications in peer reviewed journals. He is actively engaged in career and research mentorship for students at USUHS and Eastern Virginia Medical School, and for residents in several programs at NMCP.
