I received my AB in biochemistry from Princeton University in 1970 and my MD from Loyola University Medical School in 1974. I completed my residency in OB-GYN in 1978 at Northwestern University, where I joined the Medical School Faculty.
For over 30 years, I was in general OBGYN clinical practice and actively engaged in teaching medical school undergraduates, residents, post-graduates, and students in related health professions. My current clinical privileges are as a Senior Attending Physician, NorthShore University Hospital, Evanston, IL.
My current positions include:
-
- Associate Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago
- Senior Clinician Educator at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.
I’m the author of 18 peer-reviewed research papers, 7 books, and 7 textbook chapters.
Separately, I’ve reported my experiences as The Reluctant Forester, and posted my Uncle Tom Cartmell’s WWII wartime experiences in 2LT Thomas E. Cartmell, USAAF – A Young Man Went Off to War. In your free time, you may enjoy reading these adventures.
My current focus is on medical training through computer-based resources. My company, the Brookside Associates, produces electronic textbooks, videos, and other educational resources in support of professional training.
