Project description | These interviews were conducted by students at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine during the fall 2014 semester as an assignment for Dr. Raul Necochea's seminar. The students interviewed clinicians who attended medical school at UNC in the 1950s-1970s. These interviews seek to provide perspective on how definitions of medical competence and professionalism change and remain over time and serve as institutional memory of the UNCSOM. |

Abstract | Dr. Ross Vaughan is a neonatologist at Wake Med in Raleigh, N.C. He grew up in eastern North Carolina, in a small farming town called Nashville. Dr. Vaughan moved to Chapel Hill as an undergraduate to attend the University of North Carolina. He continued in the UNC system through his internship in pediatrics and then until he served in the Navy. He finished his residency and fellowship at Vanderbilt University before returning to the University of North Carolina, where he has been teaching students and residents since 1977. He has a positive view on both his own past experiences throughout his training, as well as a positive outlook as to where medicine is going. He compares and contrasts the intensity of his training and the quality and composition of his class to the current residents and students that he works with. |
