Dr. Harch’s work is a New Orleans story. What began as a curiosity to explore New Orleans, travel, and practice emergency medicine led to an interface with the New Orleans/Gulf of Mexico diving industry and diving medicine. A casual observation in treatment of injured divers inadvertently generated what appeared to be a rabbit-hole pursuit chasing clinical improvements in patients. The surprising result was the re-discovery and expansion of a centuries old controversial treatment, HBOT, for neurological and other diseases that would never had happened if not for the providential convergence of geography, culture, and timing in New Orleans.
