Third Annual Outstanding Educator Award Given to James P. Fidler, M.D. [posthumously] This award is given to a faculty member, who by vote of the surgical resident staff, has made significant contribution to the education and mentoring of surgical residents. Previous winners include Dr. Syed Ahmad (2004) and Dr. David Fischer (2005). This award was presented at Final Grand Rounds on June 21, 2006, to Sara Fidler who accepted the award on behalf of her father, the late James P. Fidler, M.D. Dr. Fidler, Professor of Surgery and Director of Endocrine Surgery in the UC Department of Surgery, died of a heart attack in India on May 18, 2006, while on one of his frequent humanitarian missions to the far east. Dr. Fidler received his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, then moved to Cincinnati in 1960 and completed his surgical residency at UC. After joining the surgical faculty in 1967, the next year Dr. Fidler took a leave of absence to spend two years as a medical missionary in Liberia, where he was one of only three surgeons in the country’s few surgical hospitals. In 1970 he returned to the UC Department of Surgery as a member of the transplant team and later as Director of Endocrine Surgery. His clinical expertise included kidney transplantation, vascular access, endocrine and general surgery. Dr. Fidler’s many honors included election to the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society and serving as President of the Mont Reid Surgical Society. He was known not only for his technical skills, but also for spending countless hours with his patients and their families to ensure that every question was answered. He was also renowned for his great patience in the operating room, where he treated medical students and residents with great respect while grilling them with questions. In addition to the two years he spent in Liberia, Dr. Fidler made numerous trips to India and China to treat the underserved and train the staffs of local hospitals. Dr. Fidler’s selfless devotion to the underprivileged in poor countries around the world has inspired UC medical students and surgical residents to continue his humanitarian mission. However, despite his devotion to others, Dr. Fidler remained a steadfast family man and completely devoted to his wife and three daughters. He will be remembered by all as a great surgeon, great humanitarian, great husband, and great father. Dr. Fidler will be missed by all who knew him.

This will include experience in minimally invasive gastrointestinal, bariatric, solid organ, hepatopancreatobiliary surgery, robotics, and flexible endoscopy. The overall goal of the fellowship is to develop academic general surgeons with an interest in advanced gastrointestinal surgical management and techniques. The program will teach advanced operative skills and patient management, and further develop clinical research and teaching skills. Expectations include teaching and rounds with residents, medical student lectures, presentation and coordination of general surgery conferences, and development and implementation of research projects related to the content areas of the fellowship. The fellowship allows the unique opportunity to obtain experience in development and application of advanced surgical technologies within the Center for Surgical Innovation (CSI). Examples of CSI research available to the fellow include device development, virtual-reality surgical simulation, surgical informatics, robotic surgery, and robotic telesurgery. Within the CSI, the fellow also has a unique opportunity to learn about commercial and educational aspects of experimental technology through exposure to our worldleading academic, industrial and government partners. Manuscript preparation, poster preparation, oral presentation, etc. are expected. The fellowship is approved by The University Hospital Graduate Medical Education program, accredited by the Fellowship Council, and is part of the national Minimally Invasive Surgery Fellowship Match.

Richard Stevenson, M.D., has been Director of the Student Education Program since November 1999. Under his leadership, a dedicated team of faculty and staff have developed one of the strongest clerkships within the College of Medicine and increased the number of graduating students who have chosen to pursue a career in surgery. Improvements to the structure of the surgery clerkship curriculum have helped us to increase the depth and breadth of students’ knowledge of surgery. We are also efficient with the students’ time. These improvements include an intense first week of the clerkship filled with didactic and interactive teaching sessions. During this week, all students participate in 9 lectures, 15 interactive teaching sessions, and 6 two-hour “practical sessions” in the Skills Lab and the Anatomy Lab. During Education Page 39
