RIP MAVIS P. KELSEY SR., MD
On March 11, 1938, just two years
after graduating from The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, a
young Mavis Kelsey, MD, joined the Texas Medical Association. He
maintained his TMA membership over an amazing 75-year career in Houston
medicine. The health care innovator, flight surgeon, and Mayo Clinic-trained
internist died last week at the age of 101. In 1951, he founded the Kelsey
Seybold Clinic with Bill Seybold, MD; his brother John Kelsey, MD; and others. I
am pleased that the clinic continues Dr. Kelsey’s tradition in organized
medicine with 100-percent membership in TMA and the Harris County Medical
Society. Our deepest sympathies to his family and friends.
