Medical Malpractice

Career that mixes both medical and law aspects?

I was always involved in the medical field, but I have always been curious/interested in law enforcement. Are there any careers that are a good mix of both? I know it sounds wierd, but for some reason I have the image of a nurse with a gun...is it possible?

1. Medical Law Degree: http://education-portal.com/medical_law.html
2. Legal nurse consultant.....a Nurse who works directly with the lawyer in medical malpractice and patient based cases
3. So law enforcement and medicine.....hmmm...I know that going into forensics is possibly a way to work closely with law enforcement while still being close with the medical field. Have you considered being a medical examiner? If you are looking more into law, have you considered becoming a patent examiner for biomedical equipment? It is so broad but for what you want, I would research forensics.
4. with the increasing risks of bio terrorism, medical pro's in infectious disease control, epidemiology and other specialties, would be highly regarded in the fbi and other government alphabet agencies, beyond the us customs services, or immigration, or border patrols services. also, you might try looking into the us marshall or secret services for info.
