Education and career

Early life

Jagoda is the son of a Jewish singer, Flory Papo Jagoda, and her husband, builder Harry Jagoda.[2] He is one of four siblings including two sisters, Lori and Betty, and brother, Elliot, who died in 2014.[3] He is married to neuro-psychiatrist Silvana Riggio.[2] With Riggio, he contributed vocals to his mother's song, Ocho Kandelikas, which reportedly became one of the "best-known Hanukah songs all over the world."[3]

Education

He received his medical degree from Georgetown University[4] in 1982. He completed a residency in emergency medicine at the joint program of Georgetown/George Washington/Maryland Institute for Emergency Medical Services System in 1985.

Military service

As a doctor in the United States Navy, Jagoda completed two tours in the Middle East, first during the Iran-Iraq War, and then again during Desert Storm/Desert Shield.[5] In 1990, he earned the rank of lieutenant commander. He was later made Assistant Professor at the Department of Military Medicine/Emergency Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland. He received a Commendation Medal for “meritorious service” from the Navy.[6]

Faculty work

Jagoda joined the faculty of George Washington University, then the University of Florida. He joined the staff at Mount Sinai Medical Center in 1995, earning the rank of Professor of Emergency Medicine with tenure in 2000. In 2009, he was named Chair of the Department of Emergency Medicine.

Other work

Jagoda led the credentialing committee for the National Football League (NFL) Airway Management Physician Program and played a role in setting up the NFL Visiting Team Medical Liaison program.[7]

Editorial and associations

As of 2024, Jagoda is Editor-in-chief of Emergency Medicine Practice.[8] He is a member of the Executive Committee of the Brain Attack Coalition at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (part of the National Institutes of Health) and of the Executive Board of the Foundation for Education and Research on Neurologic Emergencies (FERNE). He is also on the advisory board of the Indian Head Injury Foundation and of the Brain Trauma Foundation where he also serves as the EMS Director.

He is past chair of the Clinical Policies Committee of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), where his work with the committee for 14 years facilitated the evolution from a consensus-based process to an evidence-based process and promoted ACEP’s practice guideline methodology both nationally and internationally.[9] He has organized evidence-based symposiums in Italy, the Netherlands, and Chile and co-organized the first Joint ACEP/Italian Congress on Emergency Medicine.

Litigation

In the case of Newman v. Mount Sinai Medical Center, Inc., plaintiff Ms. Aja Newman alleged that she was sexually assaulted by one Dr. David Newman (no relation) in a private room. Dr. David Newman was found culpable. Jagoda and eight other named defendants, who were in the vicinity at the time, were dismissed from all allegations.[10][11]
