Beloved educator and brilliant pathologist
One of the most influential early leaders in medicine, Sir William Osler was a mentor to thousands of students in his lifetime. His revolutionary approach to medical education and views on patient care were decades ahead of his time. Often referred to as the “Father of Modern Medicine,” his ideas forever transformed the practice of medicine and his principles and methods undoubtedly live on in today’s physicians. In addition to his ground-breaking training methods, Osler brought a sense of humanism to the practice of medicine. His warm, compassionate and eloquent manner of patient interaction, while remaining grounded in strong medical knowledge, transformed the idea of appropriate “bedside manner.”
