Abstract:

Building on past accomplishments in the field of enterostomal therapy has resulted in the high quality of care available today for patients with stomas. Rupert B. Turnbull, Jr., MD, FACS, is the acknowledged "Father of Enterostomal Therapy" because of his pioneer surgical contributions and because of his call to Norma Gill, ET, to lead the technical development under his guidance. This 1993 Turnbull Memorial Lecture deals with historical interactions and developments, as seen by Dr. Turnbull's partner since the early years of the specialty's development.
