🩺 Past Presidents’ Series
This week we’re highlighting Dan O. Kilroy, MD, who served as SSVMS President in 1952.

Dr. Kilroy reminded us that the true strength of our Society lies in its members — that every voice, every physician, plays an essential role in shaping the direction of medicine.

“The final decision in all matters pertaining to this society rests in the hands of the membership as a whole.”
