In a special session of the symposium William Berry, MD, was celebrated for his five-decade career in Medicine — beginning and ending at Duke — and interviewed by George. Berry, a DCI medical oncologist specializing in treating bladder, kidney, prostate, and testicular cancer, joined Duke on January 1, 1974, and will officially retire on Dec. 31, 2023. He earned his MD at Duke in 1973.
