Dr. Barry is a product of the public
education systems of Minnesota and
Oregon. He has spent his entire academic
career at the Oregon Health & Science
University (OHSU) in Portland where he is
currently Professor of Surgery in the
Division
of
Abdominal
Organ
Transplantation and Professor of Urology.
He was Director of the Kidney Transplant
Program from 1976 to 2009, Chief of the
Division
of
Abdominal
Organ
Transplantation from 2000-2002, and
Chief of the Division of Urology from 1979
to 2008.
He has been President of the following organizations: Pine City High
School Senior Class, University of Minnesota Freshman Medical
School Class, Western Section of the American Urological Association
(AUA), Northwest Urological Society, Oregon Urological Society,
Western Association of Transplant Surgeons, Pacific Northwest
Transplant Society, Urologic Society for Transplantation and Renal
Surgery (twice), the AUA, and the American Board of Urology. He has
had >300 publications and two wives (in sequence), and done >2,400
kidney transplants. Probably the only thing he’ll be remembered for
is the development of the stamp test for nocturnal penile tumescence
testing. He continues to practice as a transplant surgeon and general
urologist at OHSU.
The Paetzold Auditorium is on the first floor of Jim Pattison Pavilion
South, just north of the information booth.
