WELCOME TO THE DEPARTMENT OF ANESTHESIOLOGY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN – MADISON.
THE LEGACY OF THE MODERN ERA IN MEDICINE.
The arrival of Ralph M. Waters as a faculty member at the new medical school of the University of Wisconsin in 1927 marked the beginning of the modern era in Anesthesiology: “In 1927 I was glad to accept a place on the Medical Faculty at Wisconsin. Objectives of that position from the beginning have been fourfold. In order of their importance they still remain: (1) to provide the best possible service to patients of the institution; (2) to teach what is known of Anesthesiology to all candidates for their medical degree; (3) to help long-term graduate students not only to gain a fundamental knowledge of the subject and to master the art of administration, but also to learn as much as possible of the effective methods of teaching; (4) to accompany these efforts with the encouragement of as much cooperative investigation is consistent with achieving the first objectives.”
