Research Profile: Erik Brodt, MD

“Erik Brodt joined OHSU Family Medicine in January 2016. He was recruited to OHSU Family Medicine to start an American Indian/Alaska Native Heath Professional education program. He brought with him a wealth of experience from his work at the University of Wisconsin Native American Center for Health Professions (NACHP).  

As Dr. Brodt describes it, the process of starting the Northwest Native American Center of Excellence (NNACoE), in many ways is a cautionary tale – it’s a great idea that almost didn’t happen at OHSU. It took the right investment at the right time and the right luck to help the team actualize something that people at the time thought truly wasn’t possible.”
