Surgical Renaissance in the Heartland : A Memoir of the Wangensteen Era by Henry Buchwald
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.8 MB
Overview: The golden era in American surgery, described by a young doctor practicing under innovator Owen Wangensteen at the University of Minnesota
In 1960, fresh out of a stint in the Air Force, Henry Buchwald was recruited by Dr. Owen H. Wangensteen to join the Department of Surgery at the University of Minnesota’s medical school. For an American born in Austria, a child of the Holocaust, a position in a city then considered by some to be the “anti-Semitic capital of the United States” might seem an uneasy fit, but in the culture of innovation created by Wangensteen, Buchwald, who had chafed against the rigidity of East Coast medical practice, found everything an imaginative young surgeon could have asked for. Surgical Renaissance in the Heartland is the story of a golden era in American surgery, ushered in by Wangensteen’s creative approach to medical practice, told by one who lived it.
