" At the age of 18, (the customary age to do so), I attended medical school in Birmingham England. Prior to that time I had enjoyed the standard elementary, and grammar school education in the small rural town of Stafford. Primary interests outside school included rugby (I was a three year starter for the grammar school team) and tennis. July 1997 will mark a thirty (30) year career in anesthesia with a sub specialty interest in obstetrical anesthesia. I came to San Diego for one year, as a clinical instructor in anesthesia, in January of 1973, and have been in the States ever since. Private practice had more appeal than a research laboratory. January 1977 saw the start of me providing anesthesia care in Tucson, a place that is now and will remain, home. Dr. James France and I started the first full time obstetrical epidural service in Southern Arizona. My wife, who is an R.N., and I spend our time outside the hospital following our varied interests. These include U of A sports, cycling, running, working out, opera, and country western music. We still have a 14 year old at home; who is a tennis freak. Our other three are spread out in Seattle, Boston, and New York and we visit when we can."
