    Send us a text Welcome to the Reclaim Ability Podcast. The podcast that moves away from simple awareness into action, moves away from prevention models and into preparation. My name is Doug Allen. I'm a 20 year combat veteran turned trauma specialist. My years as a soldier have shown me that there's a lot of things that I cannot simply get academically. While at the same time, my years as a clinician have shown me the technical skills that I cannot get operationally. I've spent the past 10 years  Combining the two together, taking the responsibility of blending both academic and experience in order to provide insight for not only clinicians, but also first responders and veterans.  Support the show
