Services
Protective medicine & executive protection medical support.
Dr. Guirguis, with his background in law enforcement and tactical medicine provides services as an executive protection physician, providing executive protection medical support for private and corporate teams. With his background in corporate medical direction and tactical medicine, he provides consulting services for corporate & executive protection teams, helping analyze their current medical capabilities embedded within their security detail via Raven Medical Support Group.
Raven Medical Support Group provides medical direction and medical control for private family offices and corporate executive protection programs that perform domestic and international duties.
Raven Medical Support Group also provides medical consulting for corporate security EP teams. RMSG will work with your entity while researching or ready to implement a medical component to your security detail. We will devise a plan, integrating your current personnel to get your security program able to provide medical support.
What we do
01
Medical direction & medical control
Raven becomes the medical director of record for your program. Your medics work under written protocols and standing orders matched to what they are actually licensed to do, and there is a physician on the other end of the phone when a decision has to be made in the moment.
What you get
Protocols and standing orders written to your team's certification level
A signed, legally defensible scope of practice
Physician availability by phone or video for clinical questions
Clinical review after any medical event on the detail
For corporate EP programs and family offices with medics already on the detail.
02
Program assessment & build-out
If you are deciding whether your detail needs a medical component, this starts with an honest look at what you already have. We sit with your medics and assess what each of them can do within their license. EMTs and paramedics are not interchangeable, and most programs are surprised by where that line falls.
What you get
Capability assessment of your current medical personnel and gear
A gap list and a training plan that uses the people you already have
Kit and medication specifications built around your principals
SOPs and documentation your legal team can stand behind
For security programs adding medical capability for the first time.
03
On-detail physician coverage
Travel, events, and movements where the right answer is a physician on the ground rather than a phone call. Coverage includes the medical advance, time on site with the detail, and coordination with receiving hospitals before anyone needs one.
What you get
Pre-travel and pre-event medical advance
Physician coverage on site, domestic or international
Receiving facility and evacuation coordination
Contracted paramedic staffing for large events
For principal travel, corporate conferences, and high-risk movements.
How an engagement starts
01
A call with your CSO or security manager about the program and the principals.
02
Introduction to your medical personnel, and an assessment of skill and scope.
03
Refresher training where it is needed, so the team is competent inside its scope.
04
Kits, gear, and medications tailored to the medical conditions of the people being protected.
05
SOPs and an approved scope of practice delivered, then ongoing retainer availability.

Questions we get
Does my detail actually need a physician?
If your team carries medications or equipment, someone has to authorize it and answer for it. That authorization comes from a physician. A medical director also gives your medics a person to call when the situation is outside their protocol, which is the moment that decides how the event ends.
What is medical control?
Two things. Offline control is the written protocol set your medics work under before anything happens. Online control is a physician reachable in real time during an event. Both are needed for a program to be defensible, and both are part of the engagement.
Our team already did a two-day tactical trauma course. Is that covered?
Trauma training covers one slice of what goes wrong. Most emergencies around a principal are medical: chest pain, shortness of breath, an allergic reaction, abdominal pain, a diabetic problem at altitude. Your team needs training and standing orders for those, and it needs them at the level each person is licensed to work.
Can you cover international travel?
Yes. Raven supports programs performing domestic and international duties, including the medical advance, coverage on the ground, and coordination with facilities in country. Controlled substances stay inside what the law allows in each jurisdiction, and the plan is built around that from the start.
How do you work with medics we already employ?
They stay your team. We assess where each person sits, train to close the gaps, and write the protocols they operate under. EMT and paramedic scopes are specified separately, because the difference between them is large and it matters when something goes wrong.
