Dr. Robert F. Wilson (WSUGS/TS 1963/65), the senior surgeon in our department, has decided to retire from active surgery effective August 31, 2015.
Dr. Wilson did his medical training at Temple University, where he graduated
in 1958 and came to WSU for his general surgical and thoracic surgical training, finishing in 1965. Bob then became a faculty member and has had an illustrious career in general surgery. During his early years, he was honored by being the recipient of the John Markle Scholarship in Academic Medicine. His Robert F. Wilson, MD
continued productivity has merited national and international acclaim. He
demonstrated that the syndrome of sepsis is associated with vasodilation rather than vasoconstriction. These initial observations, made early during his academic years while working
with Dr. Alan Thal, the WSU Chairman of Surgery, matured and are now accepted universally. Dr. Wilson has authored over 250 peer review publications, which deal primarily with surgical physiology and has edited 10 textbooks dealing with trauma and critical care. He was
recognized nationally by being elected President of the Society of Critical Care Medicine.
More recently, in 2013, Dr. Wilson was honored as “Master of Critical Care Medicine,” which
is the highest accolade provided by the Society of Critical Care Medicine. Throughout his career, he has continued to be productive and authored publications dealing with frontline concepts in critical care surgery.
Fortunately, Dr. Wilson’s contributions to the students and residents will not cease following his formal retirement since Dr. Donald Weaver (WSUGS 1979), our current chairman, has
convinced him to share his extensive knowledge with our residents, students, and faculty at
the weekly Morbidity and Mortality Conference. He still has a greater breadth of knowledge
or surgical physiology than any of his faculty colleagues.
The Mike and Marion Ilitch Department of Surgery provided a retirement reception and dinner for Dr. Wilson at the GEM Theater on August 11, 2015. Many of the faculty, present and
past, joined in celebrating his long and productive career. All had humorous remembrances of
their very positive association with Dr. Wilson. Dr. Wilson can be congratulated at
rwilson2@dmc.org.

Dr. Irene Walt Goes to Her Final Reward
Dr. Irene Walt was born in South Africa where she met, at an early age, and later married Alec Walt following his stint in World War II. They were childhood sweethearts
and, following their wedding, they moved to England where he completed his internship and then moved later to Rochester, Minnesota, where he did his surgical training
at the Mayo Clinic. Following the completion of his surgical training, they moved back
to Cape Town, South Africa, where it became apparent to both of them that
“Apartheid” was certainly separate but not equal. Not wanting to have their children Dr. Irene Walt
1924-2015
grow up in this segregated society, they moved to Southeast Michigan, where Dr. Walt
worked at the Allen Park Veterans Administration Hospital and the old Detroit Receiving Hospital.
He became our chairman in 1965. Following the 1967 Detroit race riot, Dr. Walt convinced Irene to
become involved in the beautification of the Detroit Receiving Hospital, which, at the time, was a
typical inner city public hospital with many 13-bed wards having only a curtain separating patients
that were three feet apart. Dr. Irene Walt accepted this challenge with great energy and, thus, began
her new career as an advocate for placing artwork in public places for the common people to behold. While Dr. Alec Walt travelled to many faraway places to give lectures, Dr. Irene Walt would
accompany him and identify works of art that needed to be brought back to the Receiving Hospital.
She was very cultured and very polite but when she identified an artwork that “needed” to be donated to the Detroit Receiving Hospital, she was like a bulldog, finally convincing the owner of the
artwork to donate the work to the hospital and get a tax credit rather than selling it on the open
market. She was extraordinarily efficient in this endeavor, so that the Detroit Receiving Hospital
stands second to none with the extent and quality of art that is readily viewed by the citizens of Detroit. This work extended throughout the Detroit Medical Center, the Henry Ford Hospital, the
People Mover Stations in Downtown Detroit, the Alexander J. Walt Breast Cancer Center, and the
G.S.A. commissioned John Chamberlain sculpture. She was honored by receiving an honorary doctorate degree by Wayne State University for her contributions to art in Southeast Michigan. Dr. Irene Walt was also a passionate supporter of Pewabic Pottery, which began and still thrives in Detroit, the Greening of Detroit, and the Detroit Institute of Arts. Dr. Walt authored a beautiful book
dealing with the art of healing and co-authored a book on the People Mover Stations. She also authored a beautiful art filled book dedicated to the fine art that
enhances the hallways at the Detroit Receiving Hospital. She received many
awards including the Heart of Gold Award for community development in 1973,
the Michiganian of the Year in 1982, and, of course, her honorary doctorate
Mrs. Walt enjoyed showing off the
artwork that adorned the walls of
Detroit Receiving Hospital

Lindsay and Colin’s wedding day
degree from WSU in 1988. Earlier this century, she was honored at
the 18th Annual Art Serve Governor’s Award for Arts and Culture.
Dr. Irene Walt continued to make contributions to artwork in Southeast Michigan for many years after her so-called “retirement.” She
was also an expert at all sorts of cuisines and taught many interested
individuals in Southeast Michigan how to prepare different cuisines
from many diverse cultures.
Alec and Irene’s three children have each
been very successful in their own areas of interest. Their eldest son, John, is a very busy lawyer practicing in Southeast
Michigan. Their son Steve, is a professor of law at the University of Virginia
in Charlottesville. Their youngest, Lindsay, is a professional artist and maintains a studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard in Brooklyn, New York. Lindsay’s
work is exhibited both nationally and internationally.
John has two sons. Aaron, his eldest, is in undergraduate school at the University of Michigan and plans to go
to medical school. His youngest son, Jack, is beginning
ninth grade at Groves High School in Birmingham. John
Dr. Irene Walt with her daughter, Lindis proud to point out that Jack shoots 80 on the golf say, and granddaughter, Eve
course, which is much better than either his father or
grandfather were ever able to accomplish. Lindsay’s daughter, Eve, is a senior
John Walt with his sons, Jack and
Aaron
at the State University of New York Geneseo. She is majoring in international
relations with a minor in Spanish and Sociology. She spent her junior year abroad studying at the
University of Barcelona in Spain.
Dr. Irene Walt left us on August 3, 2015, in order to become
a permanent member of The Great Art Museum in the Sky.

Dr. Larry Diebel (WSU/GS 1980/86) has always been a tremendous supporter of having Dr. Irene
Walt participate in the annual Trauma Symposium, which, as everyone knows, is the oldest trauma
symposium in America. During these sessions, Dr. Irene Walt would participate in a reception for
the visiting speakers followed by an art tour and a dinner at Giovanni’s Ristorantè in Southeast Detroit. All of the people who have participated as visiting speakers at this trauma symposium would
thank Dr. Diebel for the opportunity of seeing Dr. Irene Walt, who was well known to them because
of their friendship with Dr. Alec Walt. In remembrance of all of these beautiful events, Dr. Diebel
arranged for there to be a flower exhibit in the lobby of the Detroit Receiving Hospital immediately
below the portrait of Dr. Irene Walt. This exhibit includes three flower collections in recognition of
Drs. Alec and Irene Walt’s three children, namely, John, Steve, and Lindsay.

REPORTS FROM THE OUTFIELD
Dr. Doug Clink (WSU/GS 1978/83) and his wife, Jan, live in Guntersville, Alabama
where Doug has had a busy and diverse practice. Recently, Jan and Doug have had to
deal with the issues that may occur when a loved one develops cancer. They have
nothing but praise for the treatment that was received in the Detroit Medical Center. Jan’s letter follows:
Dear Charlie,
Doug and Janice Clink
I promised you several years ago I would summarize my dad’s experience at Karmanos. To refresh your memory, in
2008 my dad was diagnosed with bladder cancer. He was not a smoker and in quite good health for an 86 year old
living in his own home. I had been his legal medical advocate on paper for the past 15 years. Until then, I had no
need to interfere with his health care. He kept track of his own meds and appointments. Now, however, I felt the
need to accompany him to the oncologist he was referred to by his family doctor and I listened to his medical plan of
treatment. After conferring with my husband, Douglas, we immediately knew he needed to get to Karmanos for more
current, up-to-date treatment! Dr. Joel Steinberg assisted with connecting us with Dr. Elizabeth Heath and Dr. Jordan Mayer for consultation regarding course of treatment. I must preface by saying my dad was “of the greatest generation.” He was very meticulous and detail oriented. I had suggested going for a true cure and have a cystectomy
but he adamantly declined that option. (He didn’t want an ostomy bag.)
At his age, chemo and radiation was the treatment plan. He followed every instruction without missing an appointment or pill and drank his Ensure. Two years later, he was cancer free but dealt with radiation cystitis. He did hyperbaric treatment but it just couldn’t stop the slow bleeding. We realized this was a possible complication. However,
he received seven additional years of quality life. He even had the occasional martini now and then. He always believed, “everything in moderation.” In December 2014, we finally agreed it was time for hospice and he died on
March 4, 2015 at 93 year old. He was the longest surviving sibling of his family. I believe his outcome would have
been painfully different had he not gone to Karmanos. Unfortunately, medical treatment is not consistent throughout the U.S. We are fortunate and blessed to have the Wayne State medical Center, it’s doctors, medical school, and
residency programs. Sincerely, Jan Clink

Dr. Anna Ledgerwood to present her American Surgical Association
Presidential Address at Wednesday Grand Rounds
This past April, Dr. Anna M. Ledgerwood (WSUGS 1972) served as president for the world’s
most important surgical association, the American Surgical Association. On the first day of
that meeting she delivered her presidential address which deals with a 21 st century view of
“so-called” quality. This address was very well received and will be delivered at the Wednesday morning Grand Rounds on September 23rd at 8 a.m. following the Morbidity and Mortality
Conference. The editor recommends that all of the surgeons practicing in the tri-county area
put this on your calendar so that you can hear, first hand, this outstanding lecture. (See Dr.
Michael White’s letter. [insert])

WAYNE STATE SURGICAL SOCIETY
The Wayne State Surgical Society (WSSS) was established during the tenure of Dr. Walt as the
chairman of the Department of Surgery. WSSS was designed to create closer contact between
the current faculty and residents with the former resident members in order to create a living
family of all of the WSU Department of Surgery. The WSSS also supports department activities.
Charter/Life Membership in the WSSS is attained by a donation of $1,000 per year for ten years
or $10,000 prior to ten years. Annual membership is attained by a donation of $200 per year.
WSSS supports a visiting lecturer each fall and co-sponsors the annual reception of the department at the annual meeting of the American College of Surgeons. Dr. Mark A. Herman
(WSU/GS/1994/2001) passed the baton of presidency to Dr. Randall W. Smith (WSU/GS
1981/86) at the WSSS Gathering during the American College of Surgeons meeting in October
2014. Members of the WSSS are listed on the next page. Dr. Smith hopes that all former residents will become lifetime members of the WSSS and participate in the annual sponsored lectureship and the annual reunion at the American College of Surgeons meeting.
