Emergency Medicine

Our mission is to educate, mentor, and inspire the next generation of emergency physicians.

The Department of Emergency Medicine was established in 2019. It's inaugural chair was Jon Solberg, MD, FACEP, FAWM. 

In 2025, Jacy O'Keefe, MD was appointed as the new chair of Emergency Medicine for the UND School of Medicine. Born and raised in Bismarck, North Dakota, she completed Emergency Medicine residency training at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota in 2022. After this, she completed a medical education fellowship. Dr. O'Keefe is excited to help advance Emergency Medicine in her home state.
