A little more than 5 years ago, Michael Kelley, MD, decided he wanted
to be where the action is. That decision landed him in prison, but he has
no regrets.
As director of preventive medicine for the Texas Department of Criminal
Justice, Kelley believes he can make more of a difference in public health
than in his previous work with the Texas Department of Health. "It is exciting
. . . I really like what I'm doing," he says.
