David Hanson, DDS
Corporate Dental Director
“During my third year of dental school I had an opportunity to visit the Dominican Republic and provide dental care in a small, isolated village on the border of Haiti. The life changing experience I had and the connections I made with the Dominican people opened my eyes to a career in public health. I’m proud to say I work for an organization dedicated to making positive changes for those who may not otherwise have access to health care. Now going on over 17 years, PMS has allowed me to use my skills as a dentist combined with my passion for helping others to fulfill a lifelong mission of taking care of the underserved.”
John Sahs, MD
Corporate Director of Psychiatry
“Before coming to PMS I trained the Psychiatrists of the future, in addition to my strong motivation to train, my driving force in my career was to ensure that the underserved got the highest quality of care. When I was ready to make a change not only did leaving NYC to the beautiful mountains of NM appealed to me the mission and need for quality providers that PMS strives to fulfill is what brought me to PMS. In the time I have been with PMS I feel the mission of PMS lives up to organization and its obligations and exceeds them.”
