Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Uehling-Wear Lecture for 2020 was not held.
About
Dr. David T. Uehling was born and raised outside Chicago, and completed his urology training at Northwestern. Following a successful stint as a fellow at Chicago Children’s Memorial Hospital, he joined the staff at the University of Wisconsin in 1965. Clinically, Dr. Uehling developed a statewide practice in pediatric urology, and has served the children of Wisconsin admirably for 40 years.
Throughout his career, Dr. Uehling distinguished himself in research, with continuous NIHfunding in the treatment of urinary tract infections. In 1983, Dr. Uehling assumed the chair of the Division of Urology at UW-Madison, and has grown the program into one of national standing. Upon stepping down as chairman in 2001, Dr. Uehling continues to serve the Department of Urology as an Emeritus Professor. Dr. Uehling has impacted the lives of many patients, urologists and scientists throughout the world. This meeting in his honor is a small way to emphasize all of his accomplishments.
