The Babcock Surgical Clinic, a composite portrait, was painted by Furmen T. Fink in 1944-45. It was commissioned with the retirement of Dr. Babcock, who for 40 years had served Temple as Professor of Surgery. He was appointed to the chair two years after the School of Medicine was founded. He was a pioneer in spinal anesthesia, stimulated by its possible uses following a visit to France in 1907. Dr. Babcock's fame partly rests on his development of surgical techniques for intestinal cancer and hernia repair, as well as his use of stainless steel wire sutures and the invention of many surgical instruments. Surviving surgeons depicted in the oil portrait are: Dr. William N. Parkinson, Emeritus Dean and Professor of Clinical Surgery (fourth from left, background); Dr. W. Emory Burnett, Emeritus Professor and Chairman of the Department of Surgery (second from left, background); and Dr. George P. Rosemond, present Chairman of the Department (first from left, background). WILLIAM N. PARKINSON. M.D. 1886- W. WAYNE BABCOCK, M.D. 1872-1963 W. EMORY BURNETT, M.D. 1898-
