W. Barton Campbell, M.D.
(615) 322-2318
Professor of Medicine
w.b.campbell@vanderbilt.edu |
|
Dr. Campbell is a native of Nebraska. He has a BA from Carleton College in Northfield Mn. and graduated from The University of Rochester School of Medicine in 1963. Following a surgical internship at the University of Colorado, Dr. Campbell spent two years in the USPHS with the Division of Hospitals in Galveston Tx. This hospital had a loose affiliation with the University of Texas on Galveston Island. His experience there kindled a fascination with internal medicine and he returned to The University of Colorado as a Medical Resident in 1966. Dr. Campbell found all of medicine intriguing but chose a Cardiology Fellowship as it was considered the strongest specialty in the Department of Medicine at that time. This was the immediate pre-coronary bypass era and the program emphasized congenital heart disease as the Chief was a protégé of Dr. Helen Taussig. St.Thomas Hospital in Nashville hired Dr. Campbell to join Dr. Harry Page in developing a fledgling Cardiology effort centered around coronary disease and the emergence of surgical by-pass procedures. They were fortunate in attracting excellent colleagues to join their effort and developed a strong teaching and clinical research liason with the Vanderbilt Cardiology Division chaired at that time by Dr. Bud Friesinger. He has been on the Clinical Faculty at Vanderbilt since 1971. When Vanderbilt and St.Thomas ended their teaching relationship in 2004, Dr. Campbell joined the Full Time Faculty as a Professor of Medicine/Cardiology. He spent seven years as Chair of IRB at St. Thomas and remain interested in bioethics. Dr. Campbell teaches general cardiology and critical care cardiology to fellows, residents and students.
