Changing Chairs and Changing Times: A 50 Year History of the Department of Surgery from Ellison to Evans

Stuart Wilson, M.D.

Emeritus Professor, Department of Surgery

Medical College of Wisconsin

 

In this presentation, Dr. Wilson will explore the evolution of the Department of Surgery, from its early days at the Marquette University School of Medicine to the present day at the Medical College of Wisconsin.  From Ellison to Evans, each Chair has fostered the department’s growth in response to external and internal factors impacting the academic surgery environment.  Dr. Wilson will share the path taken to bring the Department to its current commitment to leadership and excellence in education, research, patient care, and community service.

Dr. Stuart Wilson joined the Department of Surgery at the Medical College of Wisconsin in 1965.  Dr. Wilson has held numerous clinical and academic appointments throughout his career.  Most notably, he served as the Vice-Chairman for the Department of Surgery from 1993–1995, the Chief of the Division of General Surgery from 1995–1997, and the Chief of Pancreatobiliary / Endocrine Surgery from 1998–2009.  During his career at MCW,

Dr. Wilson also served as Chief of Surgery for the 1st Medical Battalion in the 1st Marine Division in Vietnam from 1968–1969, where he was awarded the Bronze Star withCombat V.  On July 1, 2010, the Department of Surgery announced the creation of the Stuart D. Wilson Chair for the Chief of the newly established Division of Surgical Oncology.

In 1999, Dr. Wilson was honored to receive the Academy’s Distinguished Achievement Award.
