David Rothenberger came from the humblest of beginnings in South Dakota with no plans for college never mind a stellar career in surgery.
He witnessed family tragedy with two infant deaths and decided immediately to become a doctor. And so he did with a combination of government loans and scholarships.
He liked the look of the Princeton brochure so applied there before returning to Minnesota and Tufts for medical school.
Slowly but steadily he grew and built a colorectal practice and reputation and ultimately became Department Chair and President of ASCRS - and then an accident resulted in a neurological injury and no more surgery.
Since then he continues to contribute within the University, working on faculty development, mentorship and helping with burnout reduction.
