Anton Arbatov, MHA '15, is the Senior Director of Consult Center Operations, Specialists on Call.
When I left the Army, I had my choice of grad school. I met Dr. Martin Perlin at a Starbucks, and it was apparent to me after just a few minutes that he was just as interested in me as I was in the program. I knew that Mason would help me succeed. Combined with the flexibility of the program and the presence of a robust health care network in the area, it was an easy choice. Mason provided me with the technical knowledge to complement my tactical acumen. The program helped me to better understand my strength and weaknesses and to discover my true passion in health care innovation. The professors fostered my innovative spirit and gave me the courage to question boundaries of what we perceive as health care.
