Doctor Heaton, could you please state your name and your current title?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Hi Betsy. My name is Caryl Joan Heaton. I am a family physician and currently I'm retired so I have no title.\n\nBetsy Garrett:Can you tell us just a bit about where You grew up and if you had any special dreams or goals when you were young?\n\nCaryl Heaton:I was a kid in a suburb of Detroit, Northwest Detroit. I went to the doctor and went to a pediatrician, thought the doctor was pretty cool. Liked the idea of being a doctor. Didn't voice that desire for a long, long time and had a brief fling with veterinary medicine in seventh and eighth grade but pretty much wanted to be a doctor all my life. So when I got to undergrad at the University of Michigan, I actually dallied again with nursing school because I didn't know if a woman could have a family and a career. I kind of came around to thinking that maybe I could, so changed to premed and that's the story of how I got to go into medical school.\n\nBetsy Garrett:Well, thank you. That's great. You chose osteopathic medicine as your route into medicine. Can you say a little bit about that?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Sure. When I looked around to interview at medical schools in the state of Michigan, there were three allopathic schools and one osteopathic school, and I didn't even really know what an osteopathic school was until I started to look and saw that the requirements were about the same, the curriculum was about the same, but there was this thing called osteopathic manipulation and osteopathic manual medicine. So I started to ask around. One of the first people I asked was my dad who said, \"Oh yeah, I go to a DO. I've always gone to a DO.\" I had no idea that he went to a doctor that was anything different than any other doctor, and he loved his doctor and he thought that would be great.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I also saw that it was a school at Michigan State, an institution that I valued for its quality and so I started to toy around with the idea of osteopathic medicine and they had a slightly shorter curriculum in terms of its length. At that time it was a three and a half year curriculum and I thought that would be great. Less debt, get done quicker and I also felt I was really valued when I went there to interview. I felt like even though my MCAT scores weren't perfect, but I went there and they really, really wanted me to come. It was really a nice feeling. So I started six months before we started our curriculum in June or maybe it was even May, and although I had the option for three and a half year course, I eventually took a four and a half year curriculum because basically I took a one last year of all electives and that was great. So it was a great decision for me.\n\nBetsy Garrett:Super. You also had to make a decision about a specialty and you chose family medicine. Can you say a little bit about that?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Again, not a real sophisticated look. I just felt family medicine had a little of everything. I think I'm born a generalist. I wanted to do a little of everything and every rotation that I went through, I pretty much liked. I found the positive and the negative of each one. So couldn't bring myself to say, \"Oh, I want to do just this for the rest of my life.\" I also was pretty sure I didn't love hospital medicine that much, so I wanted to be in the office.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I wanted to go back to that office practice where I saw different people all the time and kids could go out with lollipops. Of course we don't do lollipops anymore, but kids could go out with lollipops and have a real good feeling about their family doctor. So that's what I wanted to do.\n\nBetsy Garrett:Great. You did your training at Ohio State for residency, is that correct?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Yes. I took a kind of circuitous route. I did undergrad at the University of Michigan. Really happy to go there. I'm a Wolverine through and through, but enjoyed my time at Michigan State, at the osteopathic school and when it came time for residency, I had some social reasons to want to be in Columbus, Ohio, and so I looked around and the allopathic program, the the AAFP program at Ohio State offered me a position, so I was really fortunate to have that.\n\nBetsy Garrett:You went from being chief resident to join the faculty in your own program, which certainly can be challenging. Can you tell us a little bit about that transition and how long you were faculty there?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Again, I came to academic medicine kind of easily. It wasn't that difficult a decision to make. I actually had been in the curriculum committee as a student representative when I was at the osteopathic medical school and I enjoyed looking at curricula, looking at the different rotations, what you would be expected to learn, how you evaluated learning. Was I evaluating what I evaluated my learning as I went through, was I getting everything I wanted. So when I became chief resident, we worked with the faculty there at the residency. I had a mentor in Tom Houston who was a great faculty member for me, and Pat [Fahey","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043#t=0.0,15.0"},{"id":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043/transcript/85351/annotation/2","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"] at Ohio State, who really taught me a lot about medicine and about teaching and I really value their friendship and their mentorship through the years. At the time of my graduation, there was a faculty opening and I think it was maybe six months before I graduated that I was offered the position. Because I didn't know for sure what I wanted to do, felt uncomfortable about taking a position in an office when I might be leaving within a year or two, I thought it was a great opportunity for me. So I graduated on June 30th and I became faculty member in August 1st of that year. In the month of July I did a lot of reading and tried to take on the mantle of faculty, and my co-residents were really great to me and so it was not that difficult to transition because I had a lot of support from the people with me.\n\nCaryl Heaton:Now, in my last year as Chief Resident, I went to the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine meeting. My first STFM meeting, and this was before I was even a faculty member, but I knew this was the place for me. I thought the plenaries were fascinating, interesting, stimulating, important to my learning. I thought the sessions were important. I felt like if I wanted to be a faculty member, this was the place to go to learn how to make that transition from practicing doctor to teaching physician and so it became my home.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I was active in the Academy for many years, became president of the New Jersey Academy of Family Physicians and really enjoyed working with the Academy, but always kept a membership in the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine. Luckily I had other people that I worked with. First I worked with Ohio State and Mark Classen I think was the chair for awhile there and after I left Ohio State, went back to Michigan. I took on a teaching position at University of Michigan with Tom Schwenk, and he was really great in supporting me to go to STFM every year.\n\nCaryl Heaton:When you go to STFM annual every year, or pre-doc, or a combination of both, which is what I did for many years, I learned a heck of a lot and made a lot of wonderful friends. So it became my professional home. It became a resource for colleagues, and it was actually in the days before a lot of email, but you could pick up the phone and call somebody. It was at STFM that I met a guy named Alec Chessman who told me about this World Wide Web thing, and it sounded like spider web to me and it was a Spiderman comic. So I didn't know, but he seemed to say that it was a really fascinating idea that you could work from your computer and talk to other people and send messages quickly and you could even look things up on this. I can't tell you what year that was, but I said, \"Oh well, maybe that would be cool.\"\n\nCaryl Heaton:It turns out he was right about that and a lot of things, so we started to develop groups at STFM. The STFM concept of groups, or groups on, we called them, and a group that had a special interest could meet together, at certain times during a meeting. So there would be a group on evidence based medicine, there would be a group on pre-doctoral education, which is teaching medical students and we always called it pre-doctoral education at the time. I was very interested in patients with disabilities. I had been working at Michigan with a group of patients with learning disabilities and mental retardation, and I became very interested in that group. So we started a group on patients with disabilities at STFM. We also started a group on osteopathic medicine, because I was one of the early members of STFM that was a doctor of osteopathy.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I always felt welcome at STFM, I always felt like people were happy to share their knowledge and encourage me to be active in the group, so I was really fortunate in that way. I felt that there should be a home for osteopathic physicians within STFM. So we started the group on osteopathic medicine. I have to say through the years it actually has sort of become less and less important. I think the reason for that is that osteopaths are so well integrated into STFM that the need to meet with this group for sort of moral support and sharing stories really dwindled over time. I believe it still exists, but that started my sort of interest in the organization of STFM more than just being a participant at meetings.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I started to be more interested in how STFM was organized, and you learn that through the groups on. As you become a head or a leader of a group on, you get to know some of the board members because the board was usually liaisoned with the groups on. Eventually I was asked to be on the membership committee of STFM and I think in all honesty, that was a really a magnanimous gesture, an interest to think maybe ... Joe Hobbs was president then or Mac Baird and including me on the membership committee. It was also a way of saying welcome to osteopathic physicians. So I took over a partial term on the membership committee and so stayed on. Usually a committee membership is three years and I was actually on the membership committee something like six and a half or seven years because I had taken on a partial term and eventually became chair of the membership committee.\n\nCaryl Heaton:That was a real blessing and honor and I made it my job to know as many people in STFM as I could to be a welcoming voice to new members and new participants in the organization. So going every year, meeting new people, always trying to include new members and new visitors was something that came as a gift to me and met members of the board, including Denise Rogers and Betsy Garrett. And again, people who were open to me participating and as chair of the membership committee, then you become member of the board of STFM. So in that time I met a lot of the leaders of the society and really got to know the leaders in academic medicine in the field.\n\nCaryl Heaton:Eventually I was asked to run for president and became president in 2007 and it was a wonderful year. It was actually three years on the board. You become president elect and then president and then past president and during that time we began the Council of Academic Family Medicine. So we met regularly with the members of the Academy, members of the AFMRD, which is the residency director group and with the American Board Foundation, and the American board. Yes.\n\nSpeaker 2:ADFM was part of that too? The chair?\n\nCaryl Heaton:AFDM was part of that too.\n\nSpeaker 2:Right. Right.\n\nCaryl Heaton:So we met in and sort of discussed the challenges facing us.\n\nSpeaker 2:So you've been involved in education in many different levels. You've been involved at a high level at many organizations and during all this time you're not only a family doc, a teacher, you're also a mother, a wife of someone with a very busy professional career of his own. So I'm wondering what you would tell us about, with your life so busy and so full, why you took such leadership roles, which always came on top of everything else. What would you tell to other people who perhaps are reluctant to become involved in their professional organizations in such a high level?\n\nCaryl Heaton:I think the primary reason that I participated at the level in which I participated is that I loved the organization. I mean, I really loved STFM. I still do, and I wanted family medicine to flourish. I believe in well-educated, highly competent family doctors. I believe primary care at high levels is really the best thing you can be doing. Great for our country, great for the people of our country, and if we were going to have high level, well-educated family physicians, we had to have a really wonderful education system for them. We also had to, I think, participate in the world at large and at the bigger picture of how medicine was changing in the 1980s, 90s and into the new century. So we had many challenges. We still do in terms of the way in which we participate and how we're viewed in the public and that was always important to me.\n\nCaryl Heaton:So I just made made time to do it. I'm one who speaks up at meetings. I'm one who has an opinion and I hope I'm one who also listens well, but I really felt like I wanted to be there in the meeting at the table, so that's what you do. I have a husband who is a professional, very busy but very supportive of me and that's a lucky thing. Right? I found good people to help me in my career all the way through.\n\nSpeaker 2:Sort of embedded in that I suspect is also having departments and chairs and such who were also supportive of your involvement in these organizations.\n\nCaryl Heaton:Right.\n\nSpeaker 2:How did you pay that forward as you then became a chair yourself? Did that translate for you?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Well, Mark Johnson was my chair in Newark and after my son was born, my husband got a job in a college in North New Jersey. So we moved from the Midwest and it was a really interesting experience because I worked for a residency for a couple of years. Not a university residency, but a community based residency. I actually interviewed at all the residencies in New Jersey to find a faculty position. So I learned a lot about the residencies in New Jersey, which helped me when I was advising students in the future. Mark Johnson hired me, I think as the second physician in his new department at University of Medicine and Dentistry in Newark. Mark was great in helping me to go to STFM and continue my interest there and participate in the committees that I did.\n\nCaryl Heaton:So yeah, I got that from faculty and absolutely, you pay it forward by supporting junior faculty to go. We all know that junior faculty sometimes have to hold the fort while the rest of us go to our academic meetings or the National Academy meetings. As I became a chair at the osteopathic school at Rowan University, it was my pleasure to try to really support people to go to meetings, not just for regular CME, but go to meetings to learn to be better educators. STFM was a big part of that. Also very important in my years in New Jersey was the Family Medicine Education Consortium, which was a family medicine education group in the Northeast states managed by Larry Bauer for many years.\n\nCaryl Heaton:The Family Medicine Education Consortium really should have a place in the history of family medicine because it was a great natural incubator for family medicine faculty discussions, talks, just a great place to learn to present, to present your early research and to have a another way to meet with colleagues. Sometimes junior faculty would go to that meeting when the seniors went to the national STFM meeting and that's a great way of sort of paying it forward to make sure that your junior faculty could go and then your senior faculty loved it too, so they would go too.\n\nSpeaker 2:I think one of the benefits of being involved in our professional organizations is maybe feeling in some small way we've made a bit of a difference and I'm wondering if you could share what you ... as you look back on your involvement with the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine specifically, what are some of the things you're proudest of that you feel like you were a part of, either in creating or moving forward?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Yes. Well, two things come to mind. The first is that again, my colleagues, Bill Shore and Kent Sheets, Alec Chessman, Betsy Garrett were very active in pre-doctoral education and we worked with basic curriculum that had been developed a few years before by, I think, David [Sweeh","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043#t=15.0,876.0"},{"id":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043/transcript/85351/annotation/3","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"] and maybe Kent was on that group. We wanted to develop not only a more up to date curriculum, a more expansive curriculum ... for example, we added genetics to that curriculum and we added, I think, some other new topics. So there was this idea of the curriculum and there was also the idea of reaching our community preceptors.\n\nCaryl Heaton:So because I worked with community preceptors for so many years in pre-doc as a clerkship director and then as a pre-doctoral director, I felt was really important for STFM to reach out to pre-doctorate ... I'm sorry, to the community docs and so we developed something called The Teaching Physician, which was a newsletter that your university could purchase as a subscription and then send out to all the community based docs that were teaching the students as a way to give back. As a small way to give back, but also to have them feel sort of that mantle of I'm a teaching practicing doc. So the teaching physician would have articles about teaching, about office space precepting, about the one minute preceptor, those kinds of topics. It would have some evidence-based topics.\n\nCaryl Heaton:Eventually STFM moved the teaching physician into part of a whole teaching resource that was for community based preceptors, but we had the teaching physician for maybe seven, eight years and I was really proud of making that outreach to the community docs because we really owe them so much.\n\nSpeaker 2:Well, we certainly use that in Missouri and one of the, I think, great things about it was you could personalize it. You could add some things specific to your own school, to your own curriculum and clerkship program and that was very helpful. Anything else you'd like to comment on from-\n\nCaryl Heaton:During my presidency, we had a a session that was somewhat political in nature. It was about healthcare reform and ...\n\nSpeaker 2:Single payer?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Yeah, single payer, but I'm trying to ... From San Francisco. Oh, I'm blanking on his name right now, that's is so helpful in ... I can't.\n\nSpeaker 2:Okay.\n\nCaryl Heaton:I'll think of it.\n\nSpeaker 2:Kevin Grumbach?\n\nCaryl Heaton:Yes, Kevin. So Kevin helped to participate. John Diamond was here, was at the meeting and we had a day long symposia on health care reform and how it was important to family medicine, how family medicine could be supportive of reform. So it was not truly political, but it was an airing of ideas that I felt were really critical to the profession at the time. So bringing that symposium together was really a highlight for me. During that time a number of articles were published in that way and we tried to look at what really had to change. So again, being part of these organizations, the Academy certainly had its head looking at what needed to change in terms of payment and access and quality. All those factors were important. So the Academy looked at that, STFM was taking a view of that also.\n\nSpeaker 2:You've clearly been very effective Carol, as a leader at so many different levels, from clerkship director to program director to chair of a department, president of the New Jersey Academy, president of STFM. The list goes on. Have you developed, you think, a philosophy of leadership or what you would tell young people thinking about leadership that you would advise them or guide them with?\n\nCaryl Heaton:I think it's important to know your style just of interacting with people. I'm a big believer in the Myers Briggs and I know for example that as an extrovert I talk and think at the same time often. As you work your way up in a department, you find that well when you're a lowly faculty member you talk and think and people go, \"Ah, she's just talking.\" But when you're the faculty, people suddenly listen and think that that's your final decision. So as I got to be higher in the departments, I had to preface things by saying, \"I'm just thinking out loud. I just want to know what you all think of this.\" So it wasn't my final decision. The other side of that is you work with people who are not nearly as extroverted but more introverted and have their completely formed ideas, don't say it maybe until the end of the meeting.\n\nCaryl Heaton:You have to understand that that's not just holding anything back. It's that they're thinking and putting things together, don't want to speak until they have a truly well-formed idea. So that was really important to me in committee work and interactions. Actually very interesting and teaching too because you have to ... when you're teaching you have to remember that some of those students aren't just going to spew out the answer right away. They're going to have to think about it and put something well-formed together. So that was one thing. I think also I like to think that collaboration is the way to go and to keep people informed as you move along. That's why it's important to let people know we're just in a planning stage. We're not in a implementing stage or we're in a theory stage. We're just getting information. We still need more information.\n\nCaryl Heaton:So all those things. I think women tend to be collaborative. I hope that we help to reach down and lift people up as we have been lifted up by those that went before us. So I think we try to do that, but it's important to me that communication was always happening.\n\nSpeaker 2:That's great. Thank you. Is there anything else as we wrap this up? Anything else that you'd like to share or ...\n\nCaryl Heaton:Well, I think it's important to know that that family doctors don't really ever retire. I mean, there's still much to do. So, and I said before, I have no real title. There are many opportunities to participate in local boards, local fundraising and that continues. I think when you're retired you have a whole new opportunity to reinvent what you do. It's hard to get very far from medicine because I care so much about it. But there's many, many aspects of medicine and public health that can use our health. So we do that.\n\nSpeaker 2:Great. Well thank you very much. I appreciate it, and this was really good. Thanks.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043#t=876.0,370.56"}]},{"id":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043/transcript/85352","type":"AnnotationPage","label":{"en":["Dr. Caryl Heaton Interview Summary [Transcript]"]},"items":[{"id":"https://centerforthehistoryoffamilymedicine.aviaryplatform.com/collections/3180/collection_resources/162268/file/295043/transcript/85352/annotation/4","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Interviewee: Heaton, Caryl J., DO\n\nInterviewer: Garrett, Elizabeth, MD, MSPH\n\nDr. Caryl Heaton is an osteopathic family physician who has filled a variety of roles, both professional and volunteer, in family medicine.
