Oncology, Etc. – Devising Medical Standards and Training Master Clinicians with Dr. John Glick

  • Resumen

  • The early 1970’s saw the start of the medical specialty we now know as oncology. How does one create standards and practices for patient care during that time? Dr. John Glick is a pioneer during the dawn of oncology. He says that early work involved humanity, optimism, and compassion, all of which were the foundation of his career. Dr Glick describes the clinical experiences that drove him to oncology (4:28), his rapport with patients, which was portrayed in Stewart Alsop’s book Stay of Execution (9:21), and his groundbreaking work developing the medical oncology program at the University of Pennsylvania (12:22).

Pat Loehrer: Welcome to Oncology, Etc. This is an ASCO education podcast. I'm Pat Loehrer, Director of Global Oncology and Health Equity at Indiana University. Dave Johnson: And I'm Dave Johnson, a medical oncologist at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, Texas. If you're a regular listener to our podcast, welcome back. If you're new to Oncology, Etc., the purpose of our podcast is to introduce listeners to interesting people and topics in and outside the world of oncology. Today's guest is someone well-known to the oncology community. Dr. John Glick is undoubtedly one of oncology's most highly respected clinicians, researchers, and mentors. I've always viewed John as the quintessential role model. I will add that for me, he proved to be a role model even before I met him, which hopefully we'll talk about a little bit later.   To attempt to summarize John's career in a paragraph or two is really impossible. Suffice it to say, he is to the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Center what water is to Niagara Falls. You can't have one without the other. After completing his fellowship at NCI in Stanford, John joined the Penn faculty in 1974 as the Ann B. Young Assistant Professor. Some five decades later, he retired as the director of one of the most highly respected comprehensive cancer centers in the nation. Among his many notable accomplishments, I will comment on just a few. He established the Medical Oncology program at Penn and subsequently directed the Abramson Cancer Center from 1985 to 2006. Interestingly, he established the Penn Medicine Academy of Master Clinicians to promote clinical excellence in all subspecialties across the health system. He's been a driving force in philanthropy at Penn Medicine, culminating in his role as Vice President Associate Dean for Resource Development.  Over the past several decades, he has helped raise over half a billion dollars for Penn Med. We need you on our team, John. As a clinician scholar, John's research has helped shape standards of care for both breast cancer and lymphomas. For example, he pioneered the integration of adjuvant chemotherapy and definitive breast irradiation for early-stage breast cancer. In 1985, he chaired the pivotal NCI Consensus Conference on adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. He also was a driving force in a clinical landmark study published in The New England Journal some 20 or so years ago about the role of bone marrow transplant for advanced breast cancer. Most impressive of all, in my opinion, is John's legacy as a mentor to multiple generations of medical students, residents, and fellows.   So, John, we want to thank you for joining us and welcome. Thought we might start by having you tell us a little about your early life, your family, your parents, where you grew up, and how you got into medicine. Dr. John Glick: Well, thank you for having me on the podcast, Pat and David, it's always a pleasure to be with you and with ASCO. I grew up in New York City in Manhattan. My father was a well-known dermatologist. He was my role model. And from the age of eight, I knew I wanted to be a doctor. Nothing else ever crossed my mind. But having seen my father's many interests outside of medicine, I realized from very early that there was much more to medicine than just science. And that really induced me, when I went to college, to major in the humanities, in history, art history, and I actually took the minimum number of science courses to get into medical school. That probably wouldn't work today, but it was the start of my interest in humanism, humanities, and dealing...
