Caught Our Eye

House chief of staff is just what the doctor ordered

Posted by John Sugden on July 9, 2014

It may not take a brain surgeon to run a congressional office, but sometimes it takes a House chief of staff to run a brain surgeon's office.

Carl Vogelpohl, most recently Rep. Tim Griffin's (R-Ark.) chief of staff, was named CEO of Legacy Neurosurgery this month. The Little Rock, Arkansas practice specializes in brain and spinal surgery.

Vogelpohl spent just a few months in the top job on Griffin's staff before being lured back to Little Rock. He served as Griffin's district director and deputy chief of staff there starting in 2011.

Before joining Griffin's staff, Vogelpohl spent seven years as a political strategist and consultant.
