As a doctor in the United States Navy, Jagoda completed two tours in the Middle East, first during the Iran-Iraq War, and then again during Desert Storm/Desert Shield.[5] In 1990, he earned the rank of lieutenant commander. He was later made Assistant Professor at the Department of Military Medicine/Emergency Medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland. He received a Commendation Medal for “meritorious service” from the Navy.[6]

He is also on the advisory board of the Indian Head Injury Foundation and of the Brain Trauma Foundation where he also serves as the EMS Director.
He is past chair of the Clinical Policies Committee of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), where his work with the committee for 14 years facilitated the evolution from a consensus-based process to an evidence-based process and promoted ACEP’s practice guideline methodology both nationally and internationally.[9] He has organized evidence-based symposiums in Italy, the Netherlands, and Chile and co-organized the first Joint ACEP/Italian Congress on Emergency Medicine.
Litigation
In the case of Newman v. Mount Sinai Medical Center, Inc., plaintiff Ms. Aja Newman alleged that she was sexually assaulted by one Dr. David Newman (no relation) in a private room. Dr. David Newman was found culpable. Jagoda and eight other named defendants, who were in the vicinity at the time, were dismissed from all allegations.[10] [11]
