About Us

Radiation Safety Engineering, Inc. was started in 1979 by Dr. Robert L. Metzger. Located in sunny Chandler, Arizona, the organization now consists of 11 employees, including three full-time board-certified physicists. We service the entire Southwest United States providing training, consulting and radiochemistry for environmental samples and certain radiopharmaceuticals.

After moving to Arizona, he completed his Master of Science degree in 1978 and performed research at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In 1997, he completed his PhD in engineering with a dissertation on the Solubility Testing of Actinides on Breathing Zone Air Samples.
