Autorenporträt

Elwood L Schmidt was born in Pottsville, Pennsylvania in 1931. He attended Texas A&M where he was a member of the cadet corps and received his MD degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, in 1956. His career took him to Native American reservations and small western towns. He learned the pressures and joys of being the only physician in a town. He was profiled by The New Yorker magazine in 1972 as an example of a small town medical professional. Dr Schmidt has been a Member of the American Medical Association since 1959, a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians since 1962, a diplomate of the American Board of Family Practice from 1972 to 2000, and the Medical Director of Hospice of Yuma from 1980 to 1995.
