Biography

Samuel Dean Turnipseed is an emeritus professor specializing in Emergency Medicine at UC Davis Health. He has a rich background in the treatment of cardiac patients and has developed the Chest Pain Emergency Room/Cardiac Short-Stay Unit. This innovative unit allows patients to undergo extensive evaluations for chest pain while remaining outpatients, thereby avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations. His clinical interests include assessing the benefits of immediate exercise treadmill tests for lower-risk cardiac patients and evaluating syncope in early diagnostic phases. He has conducted research on the risks of ischemia in patients abusing amphetamines who experience chest pain, as well as studying the dose-range safety and effectiveness of specific pharmaceuticals used in severe head-injury cases. In addition to his medical practice, Dr. Turnipseed has been recognized multiple times, making the Sacramento Top Doctor List from 2017 to 2020 and receiving several awards for his commitment to quality and excellence in care.
