National Guard staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe is making “extraordinary progress” after suffering a critical gunshot wound to the head and is now preparing to transition to inpatient rehabilitation, according to his neurosurgeon and family.
“Sixteen days ago, Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe was airlifted to MedStar Washington Hospital Center with a critical gunshot wound to the head,” neurosurgeon Dr. Jeffrey Mai said in a statement Friday.
“Thanks to the immediate response of emergency personnel and the exceptional care provided by our trauma and neurosurgery teams, he received lifesaving treatment, including emergency surgery to control bleeding and relieve pressure on his brain.
