“The love and respect and the affection which you will soon command as doctors of medicine—these are not things of your own making. These things have been earned for you by the decency and by the humanity of countless generations of good men, of all faiths, over the past 3,000 years. These men are dead, and for the next few years, you will hold in your hands this magnificent heritage. I hope that when it comes your turn to hand it on to your sons, not one of you will have cause to be ashamed.” — CHARLES E. DUNLAP, M.D.— CHAIRMAN, DEPARTMENT OF PATHOLOGY, 1945 -1975
Hopefully in the 50 years you have been practicing medicine, you have experienced that love, respect and affection. Each of you has done wonderful things—in your careers, communities and families. Your accomplishments and interests follow, along with your memories of your time at Tulane University School of Medicine. And judging from your lifetime of work and education, you are handing over a heritage that not only causes no shame, but is enriched by your deeds and honors.

The Story of Medicine at Tulane Medical School BY ROBERT L . HEWITT, M .D. (’59)

TULANE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE CLASS OF 1970 | 50TH REUNION
The study of medicine at Tulane, preeminent among medical education programs throughout the nation at the time, precedes the establishment of the University by nearly 50 years. Three men, Thomas Hunt of Charleston, South Carolina; Warren Stone of Vermont and John Harrison of Washington, D.C, each of them a mere 26 years of age, founded the Medical College of Louisiana in 1834. In 1834, New Orleans had a population of 58,000—despite floods, hurricanes, malaria, smallpox, yellow fever and cholera. A new 540-bed Charity Hospital had been erected in 1832 on Common Street, now Tulane Avenue, on the precise site of the present structure. The building was the fifth Charity Hospital in a line that dated back to 1736. On September 28, 1834, the New Orleans Bee announced the opening of the medical college and published its prospectus, which listed among its objectives “to lead the advancement of science and the rational treatment of disease.” All of the founding physicians, a total of seven, were age 26 or younger, and Hunt was elected dean. The
first commencement took place on April 5, 1836, and the address was delivered in Latin to eleven graduates. The faculty provided free medical care at Charity Hospital in exchange for the privilege of teaching students in the hospital. In 1843, the state legislature granted a lease of property to the medical school, which moved it into a substantial and handsome structure at the corner of Common and University Place. While the widely publicized pestilential fevers associated with New Orleans deterred some prospective students, with the new facilities, the unparalleled opportunities afforded by Charity Hospital and the soaring reputation of the faculty the school experienced sharp increases in enrollment. In 1845, the legislature authorized the creation of a university, and a later act passed in 1847, incorporated the medical college as the Medical Department of the University of Louisiana. The act also provided for a new building, including a wing to house the Medical Department, leaving the earlier building to accommodate the new Law Department. The medical complex was recognized as one of the largest and best arranged medical
schools in the country. Under Hunt’s excellent leadership— and with a strong faculty, an excellent physical plant and the outstanding advantages of Charity Hospital—the Medical Department developed rapidly. By 1860, enrollment rose to over 400, positioning it as the fourth largest program for medical education in the nation. In addition, the emergence of sectionalism resulted in a greater number of students remaining in the South to study medicine. Said Hunt, “We proudly claim for Louisiana the distinction of having established and endowed a college whose practical advantages are superior to any southern, western, or northern universities of monarchial Europe.” The Civil War forced the school to close on November 2, 1863 and to remain so for the duration of the war years. The faculty and student body scattered, most serving in the Confederate Army or supporting its cause. By March 1862, there had been 1,084 graduates. A later analysis of 427 of those graduates disclosed that approximately 12 percent of them died of wounds, illness or imprisonment, or were totally disabled in the war.
In November of 1865, the Medical Department and the University of Louisiana reopened, thanks largely to Hunt, president of the university; T.G. Richardson, dean of the Medical Department; and Christian Roselius, dean of the Law Department. Succeeding Hunt upon his death in 1867 was his brother, Randall Hunt. The following two decades were the most difficult in the institution’s history, yet few schools in the country, and no other in the South or the West, could provide the clinical opportunities found in New Orleans. In 1877, Richardson led a movement to increase degree requirements to three years of study and to lengthen the school year. The medical school faculty also authoritatively championed public health measures and led Louisiana to be the first state to establish a board of health. By 1881, Paul Tulane, a wealthy philanthropist living in Princeton, New Jersey who had made his fortune in New Orleans, made his bequest to the school. As a result, the Board of Administrators of the Tulane Educational Fund was organized and took control of the University of Louisiana.

On June 4, 1884, Legislative Act No. 42 created the Tulane University of Louisiana.
“I have a feeling of affection and reverence for [Tulane Medicine], almost like that of a son for his mother, for it was the mother that opened the door of everything for me in medicine.” DR . RUDOLPH MATA S

Succeeding Richardson as dean in 1885, alumnus Dr. Stanford E. Chaille’ (1853) was the right man at the right time. Under Chaille’, Tulane became the leading school in the old Southwest and one of the nation’s best. At the turn of the century, Chaille’ evolved as one of the leaders who proposed increasing the length of study to four years at Tulane and throughout the South. Despite the heavier academic requirements, enrollment rose to more than 400 by 1891. Chaille’ also further strengthened Tulane’s leadership in public health. When Richardson died in 1893, his wife, Ida, extended a memorial gift of nearly $150,000 to the school, providing the means to create a new building to house the entire Medical Department and its new equipment. The building, located on Canal Street and bordered by Iberville, Villere and Robertson Streets, was two blocks from Charity Hospital. On a site twice the size of the original medical campus, the three-story building included an amphitheater with a capacity of 525. Dr. Rudolph Matas (1880) stands as Tulane’s most distinguished alumnus—both of the medical school and the University. Matas is widely recognized as the “Father of Modern Vascular Surgery.” In the twilight of his long and illustrious career, Matas said of the Tulane Medical Department: “I have a feeling of affection and reverence for it, almost like that of a son for his mother, for it was the mother
TULANE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE CLASS OF 1970 | 50TH REUNION
that opened the door of everything for me in medicine.” With an outstanding faculty and the unrivaled facilities of Charity Hospital, the Tulane Medical Department entered the 20th century as the top ranking medical school in the South and one of the best in the nation. In the Flexner Report, a survey of American and Canadian medical schools published in 1910 sponsored by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Tulane ranked among the nation’s top eight institutions. Flexner identified Tulane’s major weakness as lack of endowment. In 1902, Alexander C. Hutchinson, an influential transportation executive and patient of Matas, left his estate of approximately $750,000 to the Medical Department. His will expressed the hope of erecting a university hospital. Thus, Matas was probably among the first to recognize the need for a hospital controlled by the university. While the Hutchinson bequest was insufficient to create a university hospital, the gift did provide for the establishment and maintenance of a free outpatient clinic—a facility that is still operating today—as well as the construction of a new Richardson Memorial building on the uptown campus to serve as a basic science facility. The old Richardson Building on Canal Street was renamed the Hutchinson Memorial Building. Isadore Dyer assumed the deanship in 1908 and is credited with elevating admission standards to include two years of college and increasing the medical faculty to 80
members. In 1909, Dyer initiated the Ivy Day tradition, which involves transplanting a sprig of ivy from the old Richardson Memorial Building downtown to the new Richardson Memorial Building uptown. The 1920s also saw a national movement toward full-time clinical teachers—a movement led by Johns Hopkins and generously supported by the Rockefeller General Education Fund. Rockefeller also encouraged Tulane to adopt fulltime appointments by extending a grant to the Department of Medicine. As a result, in 1924, Dr. John Herr Musser from the University of Pennsylvania was chosen to head the Department of Medicine on a full-time basis. With a second Rockefeller grant the following year, another full-time appointment positioned Dr. E.W. Alton Ochsner as chairman of the Department of Surgery. By the 1920s, it had become apparent that the old Hutchinson Building at Canal Street was both overcrowded and antiquated. Dean Bass introduced a proposal to erect a hospital and school building on the uptown campus between Willow and Claiborne streets, but the idea was later dismissed as impractical. Instead, a Rockefeller grant of $1.25 million funded a new Hutchinson Building in 1930 on the present Tulane Avenue site. The Hutchinson Fund, designated years earlier to support a hospital, remained intact. Tulane’s direction and aspirations during the 1940s were best summarized in the 1945 Ivy Day address by Dr. Charles E. Dunlap, a graduate of Harvard Medical School
and professor and chairman of the Department of Pathology: “… A great university in the South is the insistent need in American Scholarship today…I see no reason under heaven why Tulane should not become that University! It is no longer a question of whether a great university will be built in the South; it is only a question of who will build it …” Substantial funds for research became available during the 1950s, beginning a golden age for medical research—funds that were important to the rapid progress of the medical school. In 1955, the Libby Building addition to the Hutchinson Building increased the floor space of the school by 50 percent. A large grant from the Ford Foundation in 1957 supported the Burthe-Cottam addition, which doubled floor space and included the parking garage. A successful drive for $16 million to finance these projects and to increase endowment was initiated in 1959. In that year, Dean Maxwell Lapham reported that Tulane medical alumni were second only to Harvard in extending support for their school. In 1959, an outside consultant concluded that Tulane should aim to be “among the best and leading medical schools in the country” and once again, identified the major barriers to achieving this goal as finances and difficulties with Charity Hospital. In 1962, Tulane received from the National Institutes of Health the Delta Regional Primate Research Center, a 500-acre site near Covington. In 1963, the University acquired 509 acres near Belle Chasse from the
Department of Health, Education and Welfare, which later evolved into the F. Edward Hebert Research Center and Laboratories. The Department of Tropical Medicine and Public Health, which expanded rapidly after 1950, achieved status as a separate school in 1967. Tulane University Hospital and Clinic, dedicated on September 23, 1976, initially included the Jane and Jack Aron Pavilion. The Reily Foundation Pavilion was added in 1991, and the Tidewater Building, given to Tulane in 1994, became the home of the School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. The J. Bennett Johnston Health and Environmental Research Building opened in April 1994. Also, contiguous to the Tulane Hospital is the Tulane ambulatory cancer center and parking garage. The history of medicine at Tulane represents an evolution in excellence, marked by austerity but enriched by romanticism and tradition. During the formative years, survival through pestilence and war engendered a strength and resiliency of character that remains a vital part of the thriving institution today. Dr. Charles E. Dunlap commented at an Ivy Day address in 1945: “A continuing and practical interest in the future of the school by you and all graduates of Tulane is the very brick and mortar which can build this into The Great University of the South.” It would seem that Dr. Dunlap knew the institution well. This history is an abbreviated excerpt from an article in the Spring 1994 issue of Tulane Medicine, itself adapted from Hewitt’s illustrated lecture, presented to the Alumni Study Club during Homecoming 1991.

COKER CONTINUED
Highland Park Hospital-Lakeview Regional Medical Center from 1977-1979, and Laboratory Director of Highland Park Hospital-Lakeview Regional Medical Center from 1979-2001. In 1992, Dr. Coker recognized the lack of coagulation medicine expertise in the New Orleans area as well as across Louisiana, so she began her travels across the US and Europe to learn the field of Coagulation Medicine. She was the founder, owner and Medical Director of Louisiana Coagulation Laboratory from 1992-2016, which is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of bleeding and clotting disorders. The laboratory served over 30 hospitals and facilities across Louisiana, in addition to facilities across the nation. She served in two hemophilia centers, including the center at Tulane. She was Clinical Assistant Professor, section of Hematology, at Tulane, and Fellows from Pathology and Hematology were sent to her laboratory to learn coagulation medicine and testing for bleeding and clotting disorders. Dr. Coker provided continuing education to physicians, nurses and medical technologists in the form of the Louisiana Coagulation Conference, which continued for several years and featured nationally and internationally known coagulation experts. She is semi-retired and visits multiple facilities to serve as a laboratory consultant. At present, her major passion is studying herbal medicine and growing medicinal herbs (non-cannabis) on her herbal farm in Madisonville, LA. She loves Integrative Medicine. Dr. Coker is a widow and has two daughters and two grandchildren. She was Queen of a small Mardi Gras Krewe, Lyra, in 2010. MEMORIES: The whole ambiance of it. The professors – Dr. Peebles, Dr. Bailiff, Dr. Woody, and Dr. Dunlap—all remembered for different reasons. Most of all, Dr. James Knight, who gave me a chance! Hawthorne Hall, my place of residence. Wonderful New Orleans, where I made my “home.” A spirit of excellence filled the air. We walked to Charity Hospital at night when on-call with the “safety net” of our brown coats, past Joe’s bar, across Tulane Avenue and returned at dawn to see the alleys filled with broken whiskey bottles and sometimes sanguineous stains on concrete. Put simply, it was our job and we did it without fear!
Alfred John Colfry, M.D. Specialty: Urology Metairie, Louisiana After graduation from Tulane School of Medicine, Dr. Colfry did an internship and a year of General Surgery residency in the Tulane Service at Charity Hospital New Orleans. He did four years of Urology, including one year of an NIH-sponsored research fellowship with Tulane Urology.

Judith Fabian, M.D. Specialty: Anesthesiology/Cardiac Anesthesiology Palm Springs, California After graduating from Tulane School of Medicine, Dr. Fabian completed a residency in anesthesiology and a fellowship in cardiac anesthesiology at the Medical College of Virginia (MCV). She spent six years in private practice on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and returned to MCV in 1980, where she became Chief of Cardiac Anesthesiology. She was a Virginia delegate to the American Society of Anesthesiology, Vice-President of the Virginia Society of Anesthesiologists, and served on the Board of Directors of the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiology. In 1993, she became Chief of Anesthesiology at the Albuquerque VA Medical Center and Associate Professor of Anesthesiology at the University of New Mexico (UNM). She was Chief of Staff at the VA from 1994-1995 and served on the VA National Pharmacy Board. In 1995 she was promoted to Professor of Anesthesiology at UNM and appointed Chair of the Department of Anesthesiology. After her retirement for health reasons in 1998, she served as Secretary-Treasurer of the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiology Foundation. Dr. Fabian enjoys golf, painting, Pilates, knitting, and cooking. MEMORIES: The exceptional quality of the clinical faculty, especially Dr. Burch. I was privileged to be assigned to his ward as an intern. He could get more information out of a patient in five minutes than we could get in an hour. He said it didn’t matter how smart you were if you didn’t spend time with your patients. Your smarts didn’t do them any good – listen to the patient and he’ll give you 90% of the diagnosis. Both things stuck with me throughout my career.
Julian Brian Foreman, M.D. Specialty: Radiology/Nuclear Medicine Covington, Louisiana After graduating from Tulane School of Medicine, Dr. Foreman did a rotating internship at Charity Hospital in New Orleans, followed by two years as a Captain in the U.S. Army. After completing service, Dr. Foreman did a three-year Radiology residency at Charity Hospital New Orleans. Upon finishing residency, he was an instructor at Tulane School of Medicine for one year. He spent the next 15 years on the faculty of LSU School of Medicine, serving most of those years as head of the Nuclear Medicine Department and finishing that era as an Associate Professor of Radiology. He then resigned from LSU to enter private practice. Along with a lifetime friend, Michael Hanemann, he practiced at River Parishes Hospital and St. James Hospital. He was Chief of Staff for his last two years at St. James. He then retired from full practice to a part-time position joining Regional Radiology on the Northshore. He now has time for his three favorite ventures: hunting, travel and strength training. MEMORIES: We had to wear a tie to class.

John E. Hevron, Jr., M.D. TMAA Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient Specialty: Internal Medicine/Hospitalist Covington, Louisiana Dr. Hevron grew up in New Orleans and attended Tulane undergraduate. He entered the medical school without a degree after three years. He was terrified at the prospect of flunking out and being sent to Vietnam as a grunt (a Frontline G.I.) As he was living at home, all he did was study. He felt that he was in way over his head. It wasn’t until the third year that he woke up one day and realized that he really was going to graduate and be a Doctor after all. His children can’t comprehend going to undergraduate and graduate school while living at home. After medical school and residency in Atlanta and the army, he returned home to practice OB/GYN in Metairie and retired two years ago after 47 years of OB/GYN practice. During this time, he delivered 5,000 babies and specialized in the delivery of the babies of babies he had delivered. For the last 28 years he has been involved with leading a medical mission to Latin America. Each year in June they bring a group of 30 to 50 people and conduct medical and dental and veterinary clinics. They spent the last 20 years in Nicaragua, but due to political issues the mission is moving to the Dominican Republic. Over the years they have saved a few lives and treated tens of thousands of patients. The community of like-minded individuals who go on the trip have become like family. They have made countless friends in the process. A few years ago, Dr. Hevron was ordained to marry a friend of his daughter’s. Since then he has done five weddings. He is jokingly referred to around the hospital as the “Reverend Dr. Hevron” or the “Rev Hev.” He recently married a baby girl whom he delivered 24 years ago, as well as her maid of honor, whom he delivered as well. He is now blissfully retired without any regrets, living with his wife of 49 years, Mary Margaret. Dr. Hevron enjoys stained glass, decoupage, travel, and many art projects.
