Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has picked three new members for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s medical advisory panel.

Dr. Brian Morris, Dr. Albert Osbahr and Dr. Gina Pervall have each been appointed to two-year terms on the FMCSA Medical Review Board.

“Healthy commercial drivers are safer drivers,” Secretary LaHood said in a statement. “The Review Board plays a critical role in ensuring that drivers of large commercial trucks and buses are medically qualified to operate on our roads.”

Morris is associate medical director at All One Health Resources, and is former surgeon general for the Massachusetts State Police. He holds board certifications in occupational and legal medicine, as well as degrees in medicine, law, business and public health. Morris is a diplomat of the National Board of Medical Examiners according to an FMCSA news release.

Osbahr has board certifications in family, occupational and preventive medicine and is a certified medical review officer. He is president of the North Carolina Medical Society and the North Carolina State Occupational Society. Osbahr also is chairman-elect for the American Medical Association Council on science and public health.
