A Conversation with Dr. Ronald C. Jones
Dr. Ronald Jones was the 12th Chief of Surgery at Baylor University Medical Center and served in that capacity for 25 years, retiring in 2012. He remains the residency program director for the department of surgery at Baylor University Medical Center.
110 Years of Surgery at Baylor University Medical Center takes you from pioneer doctors in early Dallas to surgical practice of today. It also gives you a glimpse of the day Dr. Jones received a call that President John F. Kennedy had been shot and was on his way to Parkland Memorial Hospital's emergency room, where Dr. Jones was a surgery resident. Dr. Jones was one of the first physicians to treat the President on November 22, 1963. He was among the team of doctors that worked on the resuscitation of President Kennedy in Trauma Room One. Less than 48 hours later, he was part of the surgical team that treated Lee Harvey Oswald.
