He received a Doctorate of Medicine from the University of Rochester School of Medicine and completed internship plus fellowship in medicine at the Mary Imogene Bassett Hospital, Cooperstown, New York. He was awarded the title of Diplomate by the National Board of Medical Examiners and was licensed to practice medicine and surgery in New York. In 1954 he was certified by the State of California and established his practice in the San Francisco Bay area.
