Dr. Brooks is board certified in Medical Toxicology, Emergency Medicine (EM) and Addiction Medicine. He is a Professor of Medicine and Emergency Medicine at the University of Arizona College of Medicine-Phoenix (UofA COMP) and works clinically at the Banner University Medical Center-Phoenix and Phoenix Children’s Hospital caring for patients with toxicological injuries and exposures, including outpatient clinic visits. He also works Emergency Department shifts at the EM residency program at Valleywise Healthcare Center, and was the Medical Director of the Banner Poison & Drug Information Center (and two other poison centers) for over 20 years. His interests include occupational exposures, substance use disorders and integration of poison centers into public health. He is also the Co-Director of the Center for Toxicology and Pharmacology Education and Research (CTPER) at the UofA COMP.
Dr. McGreevy, like many Arizonans, is not native to the state but has considered it home since his family moved to the Phoenix area in 1989. After attending the University of Arizona, he attended Creighton University School of Medicine, Omaha, Nebraska. He went on to complete pediatric residency at Children’s Medical Center Dallas / University of Texas Southwestern. He spent the next two years as a pediatric hospitalist working for Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine/St. Louis Children’s Hospital and stayed there to complete his fellowship in pediatric emergency medicine. During fellowship, he was enrolled in an NIH training grant to develop physician scientists and additionally completed a Master’s in Science and Public Health from St. Louis University School of Public Health. Research on Rapid HIV screening during this period lead to the Ludgwig-Siedel award in 2009. Upon completion of training, he moved to Phoenix. He has been with Phoenix Children’s Hospital since 2013 and has been an Associate Program Director for the pediatric residency program since that time. After completing the LEAD (Leadership in Educational Academic Development) program with the Association of Pediatric Program Directors, he was appointed as the Fellowship Director of the Pediatric Emergency Medicine Fellowship aligning with his long-time interest in medical education and the mentoring of fellows. In 2019, he won the Grace Caputo Faculty Mentor award, which was a tremendous honor as Dr. Caputo was one of his personal mentors. When not working, he and his wife are always looking for outdoor activities and challenges to explore in Arizona, with hopes that their daughters may one day join them on their annual Rim-to-Rim day hike in the Grand Canyon.
