Aviation medical exams may only be performed by Civil Aviation Medical Examiners (CAME) for Transport Canada (TC) and by Aviation Medical Examiners (AME) for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the United States. Physicians are trained and designated for this purpose. As a CAME, Senior AME and former Flight Surgeon in the Canadian Armed Forces, Dr. Mastrangelo has the necessary training, experience, knowledge and designations to perform these exams.
