WINFRED HENRY BUEERMANN, PH. D., M. D.

     Though he has but recently entered the professional ranks of Portland, Dr.
Winfred H. Bueermann has already gained definite recognition as an able and
conscientious physician and is rapidly building up a large and remunerative
practice. The Doctor was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1895, a son of the Rev.
Frederick and Emma (Trumpp) Bueermann. The father was born in the province of
Hanover, Germany, and came to the United States at the age of fourteen years. He
received a good education and entered the ministry of the German Baptist church,
in which service he has been eminently successful, particularly as a builder of
churches. For several years he was pastor of the German Baptist church in
Portland, Oregon. He was married in Brooklyn, New York, and to him and his wife
were born five children, two sons and three daughters, of whom one daughter is
deceased, the survivors being Winfred H., Raymond, Emma Lillian and Margarete.
     Dr. Bueermann received his early education in the public schools, attending
the Jefferson high school and McMinnville College at McMinnville, Oregon, where
he received the degree of Bachelor of Science, after which he had two years of
medical instruction in the University of Oregon. He then matriculated in the
medical school of Columbia University, from which he was graduated with the
degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1921, and later he served sixteen months as
interne in Christ Hospital, in Jersey City, New Jersey. He attended the Mayo
Clinic and Mayo Foundation for Scientific Research as a fellow in surgery from
1922 to 1927 and received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in surgery, which
was granted by the University of Minnesota in June, 1927. On May 1, 1927, he
entered upon the practice of his profession in Portland, where he specializes in
goitre and general surgery, in which lines he is acquiring a wide reputation. He
is attending surgeon at the Doernbecker Hospital and a member of the teaching
staff of the medical school of the University of Oregon.
     Dr. Bueermann was united in marriage to Miss Gladys Mabel Champion, of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, whose father was a minister of the Gospel. The
Doctor is a member of the Minnesota State Medical Society, a fellow of the
American Medical Association, is a member of the junior candidate group of the
American College of Surgeons, and belongs to the American Legion and the City
Club, He is closely devoted to his life work, in which he is winning marked
success, and his courteous and kindly manner has won for him the esteem of all
who know him.
