Presentations from the Edwin L. Kendig Jr. Pediatric Pulmonary Symposium, Richmond Virginia May 25, 2017

Richmond Virginia is, in a way, like the chairs that Goldilocks sits on in the fairy tale. It is not too big, or too small, but just right, at least as it pertains to the development of medical care for children with chest disorders, as they were called when Dr. Edwin Kendig Jr. augmented his primary pediatric practice with a weekly chest clinic beginning in the mid 1940 ’s. The region and its medical needs were large enough that one very observant, disciplined and curious individual could see, care for, describe and study everything in the field over a fifty year career.
