A Legacy Letter of Faith & Trust

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book is the life story of a learning-disabled boy who became a physician. Later in life, he felt led by God to create a concept called the Troas concept. It is a story of faith and trust in God that resulted in a very successful career. This autobiography shows how life events gradually resulted in the development of a new concept in medicine, an alternative type of medical practice. He believes that this concept will save the profession he loves and that it will eventually lead to the restoration of the patient-physician-God relationship that is lacking in the practice of medicine today. The book is really about a love story concerning his relationship to God and the women who helped direct the course of his life.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Cashion has been a physician since July 1966. He attended medical school at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas. He did internal medicine training on the Harvard Medical Service of Boston City Hospital. Cardiology training was completed at Georgetown University Hospital in Washing-ton DC with the world-famous medical educator Proctor Harvey MD. Dr. Cashion later returned to the Harvard Service at Boston City Hospital and served as the chief medical resident.

Dr. Cashion served in the US Air Force on active duty at Scott Air Force Base during the Vietnam war. Following discharge, he practiced cardiology with Waco Cardiology Associates in Waco, Texas. He was then recruited to an academically affiliated group at Methodist Hospital in Houston, Texas. After nineteen years in Houston, he started a cardiology program in College Station, Texas. By the grace of God, he grew that program from a small community hospital to one doing interventional cardiology and open heart surgery. In 2005, he was recruited by Austin Heart to start an interventional cardiac program without surgical backup in Killeen, Texas. He was involved with the development of a community hospital in Harker Heights, Texas, seeing it develop from the initial idea into the fully functional Seton Medical Center Harker Heights-a community hospital with a four-star CMS rating. He currently serves as the chairman of the board of trustees of that hospital. He retired from Austin Heart to return to full-time cardiology at Olin E. Teague Veterans' Medical Center hospital in Temple, Texas. There he is involved with direct patient care and in teaching medical residents and cardiology fellows in training.
