ER Consulting Inc. has developed several of our doctors into world class aviation healthcare specialists. Over the past 8 years, we have supplied flight doctors to renowned companies such as International SOS, Rocket HEMS, Netcare 911, ER 24, and Halo. Our doctors also contribute to commercial repatriation flights and provide medical escort services.
