Posteriormente se doctor\u00f3 en Medicina por el New York Medical College.  Adem\u00e1s de su experiencia m\u00e9dica, el Dr. Skeehan complet\u00f3 una residencia en Cirug\u00eda Ortop\u00e9dica en el Centro M\u00e9dico Naval de Portsmouth antes de su servicio naval como cirujano ortop\u00e9dico.  M\u00e1s recientemente, el Dr. Skeehan complet\u00f3 una beca en reconstrucci\u00f3n de adultos en el Hospital Ortop\u00e9dico Langone de la Universidad de Nueva York y el Instituto Insall Scott Kelly.

Filosof\u00eda personal del Dr. Skeehan de la atenci\u00f3n se centra en el aprecio de sus pacientes, el seguimiento de sus resultados, y siempre tratando de ser mejor para ellos.
