Leadership at the Highest Standard

  • Who we are

    Halcyon Response is led by Dr. Daniel Friedman, a board-certified Emergency Physician with fellowship training in EMS, disaster response, tactical medicine, and extensive experience as a paramedic and EMS educator. His career spans frontline emergency care, disaster coordination, medical education, and tactical medical operations—bringing physician-led expertise to high-stakes environments.

    He is joined by Sergeant Christopher Pastor with state law enforcement, a SWAT certified and experienced K9 officer and trainer, and a leader in high-risk operations, tactical response, and advanced canine deployment.

    Together, they combine medical mastery with tactical precision to deliver presidential-level preparedness for estates, yachts, and private aviation. Their mission is simple: ensuring safety, security, and confidence for the world’s most discerning clients.

  • Why it matters

    Even in the safest communities, emergencies happen. Response times can stretch to 8–15 minutes or more, and during that gap outcomes are decided. Home invasions, medical crises, and natural disasters have proven that wealth and status do not shield families from risk.

    Halcyon Response closes that gap. We give your estate or vessel the tools, training, and physician-led oversight to be ready before responders arrive. It’s the quiet luxury of knowing that when the unexpected occurs, you are already prepared.
