The University of Virginia School of Medicine was established as one of the University's original eight schools when UVa opened
in 1824, and in 1901 the University of Virginia Hospital was opened with Dr. Paul
Barringer as Superintendent. Since its opening in 1901, the University of Virginia Hospital has expanded its physicians, departments,
and Hospital facilities.
The list of the UVa physicians from 1951 to 1990 show general changes that took place in the Hospital through these years,
including the increase in the number of physicians, promotion process of the
physicians, and specialization of the Hospital departments.
This Collection is composed of lists of physicians who have been appointed by the University of Virginia Hospital from 1951
to 1990. The list of 1953 is not extant. The Collection contains 39 files in two
boxes. Files are arranged by chronological order and names of the physicians are listed by department. Some years have more
than one version of the list with handwritten corrections and adding explanation on the
materials.
