Houston VA Doctor Named
President of Surgical Association
HOUSTON - Members of the Association of VA Surgeons recently elected
David H. Berger, M.D., M.H.C.M. to serve as the organization's new
president. Listed as one of the best doctors in the nation in the field
of surgical oncology, Berger is the Operative Care Line executive at the
Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center.
"Following Dr. DeBakey's life-long pursuit of excellence and commitment
to surgical advances in order to make a worldwide impact on health care
and improving lives, Dr. Berger is carrying on that tradition today at
the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center," said Adam C. Walmus, M.A.,
M.H.A., F.A.C.H.E., MEDVAMC director. "We are very fortunate to have
that level of passion and expertise in advancing medical care for our
nation's heroes."
The Association of VA Surgeons, a non-profit, non-political, educational
organization, was established in 1967 to improve patient care, medical
education, and research in surgery in the Department of Veterans
Affairs.
"For more than 12 years, Dr. Berger has worked tirelessly to bring
cutting edge technology to the DeBakey VA which has had significant
impact on the care we provide to our Veterans. He is a true scholar and
an enthusiastic teacher," said J. Kalavar, M.D., MEDVAMC chief of staff.
"We are extremely lucky to have such an accomplished and highly esteemed
surgical expert on our team."
Berger received his medical degree from State University of New York
Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn where he also completed his
residency in general surgery. Berger also completed a three year
fellowship in surgical oncology at the University of Texas M. D.
Anderson Cancer Center. A professor and vice chair of the Michael E.
DeBakey Department of Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine, Berger is
the author of more than 150 peer-reviewed and invited publications and
the recipient of numerous awards for excellence in teaching.
The
VA Star
is a free newspaper, produced every other month, focusing on news and information about Veterans’ health care
in southeast Texas.
