Dr. Anson H. Stage
Oregon Physician Joins
Med School Faculty
After 15 years in private
practice Dr. Anson Stage hat
decided to go back to medical
school because that's where the
action is.
He's the new assistant profes-sor
in the D e p a r t m e n t of
Obstetrics-Gynecology at t h e
Louisiana State U n i v e r s i t y
School of Medicine at Shreve-port.
He comes here from Coos
Bay, Ore., which has a patient;
shed of some 50,000 patients.
A graduate of George Wash-ington
U n i v e r s i t y Medical
School, Stage took an internship
at the U.S. Naval Hospital,
Bethesda, Md., and his residen-cy
at Emanuel Hospital, Port-land,
Ore., before moving to
Coos Bay, which he described
as an "isolated settlement on
the coast."
"There are exciting things
going on . . .," Stage said in
an interview in his fourth floor
office at Confederate Memorial
Medical Center . . . "So much
is happening after 15 years and
medical schools are where it is
happening."
Amon the developments to
which he refers are examina-tion
of amniotic fluid of pregn-ant
women and treatment of
RH incompatibility by this ex-|
amination.
His own area of research
interest iies in gynecological
malignacies.
He originally went to Coos
Bay, "because I enjoy small
town atmosphere and they need-ed
an OB man — they still do."
Maybe medical schools are
where the action is, but even in
Coos Bay Stage wasn't the run
of the mill private practitioner.
Questioned closely, he modest-ly
told of a clinic set up by
himself and three other OB-GYN
specialists, so pregnant
patients on welfare wouldn't
have to go to Portland, 200
miles away, and so they would
have the care of a specialists,
'and not hit and miss (care)."
"Each one of us would have
the clinic one month and be off
three months," he explained.
Welfare funds paid for hospi-tal
care.
Stage is a Fellow of the
American College of Obstetrics
and Gynecology and a Diplo-mate
of the American Board of
Obstetrics and Gynecology.
