A tribute to Dr. Donald Seldin
Watch: Dr. Seldin through the decades
A century of Seldin
Raymond S. Greenberg, M.D., Ph.D.
October 24 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Donald Seldin. Having recently published a biography about the iconic Dallas physician – Donald Seldin: The Maestro of Medicine – I confess that he continues to live in my mind more than two years after he passed away. For those who were privileged to study under him or know him personally, Dr. Seldin was a towering figure. It is not an exaggeration to assert that he transformed an institution, nurtured generations of physicians, and enriched his community almost without parallel in the history of modern medicine.
