Storm Chaser Medical Advisory Hotline and Acute Care Service--A FREE Service

[Jason Clark]

Your presentation was the highlight of the con for me. If I see you this spring, dinner is on me.

Luck favors the prepared

Jason, you are exceptional. I watched your presentation at ChaserCom via live stream (couldn't attend in person) and was impressed with both your insights and your sense of humor. Thank you for making your medical expertise available to us once again this season. Blessings to you in your move back to Colorado, and good luck and safe chasing.

I see that you are no longer working for Mayo Clinic. I notice that you have mayo.edu email on your contact page. Do you still have working mayo.edu email?

As many of you know, I run a free, confidential medical hotline for storm chasers (http://stormdoctor.com/). Recently, one of my good chaser friends required a temporary admission to the hospital where I work (University of Colorado) and we took it upon ourselves to mock up a new look for the chase medical hotline. I've included it below--though I still am enamored of the amazing handiwork of one of Marvel Comics' best artists, Don Perlin, who made the second one for me . Thanks guys!



Just know that the hotline is still both active and always available. All services are confidential and free.​

Thanks for the update, Jason. You are The Stuff! I hope I never need to take advantage of your generous service, but I'm glad that you make it available.

 

[Scott Olson]

Jason, is awesome - I've used him before and I'm sure one of the years I'll reach out to him again.

 

[Jason Persoff]

To my friends here: life is fickle and fleeting--we all need to take advantage to live life to its fullest at every opportunity. This spring, instead of storm chasing, I need to pursue issues with my own health which will keep me away from chasing and from the hotline for the next few months. I'll barrel ahead with gusto and hope. I hope you'll understand that I am not in a place where I feel comfortable sharing this information publically for now. Should you need the hotline, leave a message. I promise that when I return I'll answer the call. But expect a bit of an electronic blackout so that I can focus for now. Until 2014, I'll wish you all many a rain-free base...

Jason,

Thank you for the service you have provided all of us over the past several years, it especially meant a lot to me when I thought I had something seriously wrong with me and I contacted you and you stayed in contact with me during that time. I think all of us can understand you needing to use this time to take care of yourself and look after your own health, and not knowing the details of what you're going through I will end this with saying I will send my thoughts and prayers your way and hope you overcome whatever health issue you're currently facing. You need to focus on yourself!

 

[Wes Carter]

We wish you well Dr Persoff. Thanks for all you do and make available to everyone. Take care of yourself and know I wish there were some way we could return the favor. If there is, let us know.

My thanks to Jason, too. I can confirm he has helped myself and Shannon out of a few binds during the past several years when our doctor was unavailable. He also did some amazing workups in one instance where we were trying to make sense of a CT scan, and it definitely set us on the right course.

We look forward to having him back soon.

 

[Jason Persoff]

I'm back in full swing. All my health problems are better and I'm able to return to a full and healthy life! Yeah me! Please don't hesitate to use the hotline unrestricted. Today I'm trying to snag my son his first ever tornado along the Colorado Front Range! Thank you for all the well-wishes!

Jason is a great guy, certainly if I get malaria I will get a second opinion from him before following a local doctors advice to drink more coconut

Well...that depends if that coconut is being carried by a European or African swallow...

Thanks Scott--really wanted to thank everyone who came to ChaserCon this year. Service is up and running as usual...and this year, I believe, I shall rejoin the herd .

 

[Joey Ketcham]

I second that as well, Jason is awesome for offering the service that he does to all of us. A couple years ago I thought something was seriously going on with me, and with a phone call Jason explained to me what was going on and I followed his advice and quickly recovered. During that time, he called a few more times to check in on me. I can't thank him enough for that, and for what he continues to do.
