Earnest M. Burgess, M.D. - A Tribute
Without a doubt, Ernie Burgess was one of those special people who touched
the heart of the O&P profession and left an indelible mark that will be
forever remembered. The impact of his vision for prosthetic research and
dedication to both veteran and non-veteran amputees in the US and the world
over has certainly not gone unnoticed.
Ernie was both a gentleman and a gentle man who had a compassion for his
fellow man that crossed all boundaries. The constant smile on his face is
one of those unforgettable ones that truly matched his personality. His
willingness to share his knowledge and skills as both a surgeon and a
researcher gained him many well-deserved recognitions throughout his career.
My condolences and prayers go out to his many friends and especially his to
family. He will be sadly missed, but always fondly remembered!
With my sincerest thoughts,
