Ventura, MD Ochsner Heart and Vascular Institute, Department of Cardiology, Ochsner Clinic Foundation, New Orleans, LA he contributions of Alton Ochsner (1) to the principles and practice of medicine are internationally recognized. THis professional legacy has been recorded in numerous manuscripts and books during his long and fruitful medical career, and his personal legacy has been documented in multiple biographies. It is, therefore, both an honor and a daunting task to write on the life and career of Dr. Alton Ochsner for Ochsner Profiles. It is an honor because my name will be associated with others who have written about this renowned figure and a daunting task because I have to reach into Dr. Ochsner’s mind and heart through his interviews and through the minds and hearts of those who knew him on a personal level. I hope that my exploration of Alton Ochsner’s achievements and personality will lend tribute to one of the greatest figures in medicine.
