William SIBBALD,
Doctor And Educator (1946-2006)
Physician-in-chief at Sunnybrook and Women's College hospitals
in Toronto was an infuriatingly single-minded visionary who guided
the city through the severe acute respiratory syndrome crisis
and helped alter the nature of intensive-care treatment in Canada
By Douglas
McARTHUR,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S6
Toronto -- Bill
SIBBALD was an ideas machine. Strategies, suggestions
and potential solutions cascaded from his lips at the Ontario
teaching hospitals where he built an international reputation,
at global medical conferences and around the family dinner table.
His ideas helped to change the face of intensive-care treatment
in Canada, to shape the way health care is delivered in Ontario,
to guide Toronto through the severe acute respiratory syndrome
crisis of 2003 and to inspire a new generation of critical-care
professionals.
Dr.
William
John
SIBBALD was director of critical care at Victoria
Hospital in London, Ontario, and a professor at the University
of Western Ontario from 1977 until 2000. Then he became physician-in-chief
at Toronto's Sunnybrook and Women's College Health Sciences Centre
and a professor of medicine at the University of Toronto. In
both roles, he was a physician, teacher, leader, mentor and researcher.
"I used to tell people who didn't know him they should ignore
something the first time he mentioned it," says Doctor Frank
RUTLEDGE,
who heads the critical-care programs at Victoria Hospital and
Western. "They should pay attention the second time. The third
time they should put it at the top of their pile. He threw out
so many ideas, if you tried to work on everything the first time
it was mentioned, you'd never get anything done." Doctor Steven
SHUMAK, deputy physician-in-chief, says many of Doctor
SIBBALD's
ideas involved medical informatics, the application of computers
and information systems to improve patient care and education.
Colleagues remember him as gruff but generous, an infuriatingly
single-minded visionary who smoked heavily in his early years
to burn off excess energy, but who gave it up after an operation
for salivary gland cancer. He was an advocate for those he worked
with, giving them his undivided attention in private meetings.
In the workplace or on the golf course, he strove for perfection,
but often interrupted a game to respond to a BlackBerry message.
He occasionally told off-colour jokes and he followed hockey
religiously, even when out of the country.
Dr. SIBBALD started work before dawn, even on weekends, so he
could be home to spend time with his wife and five children.
He coached his sons in hockey, attended his children's sporting
events and told them all he was their "biggest cheerleader."
Over his career, Doctor
SIBBALD wrote about 250 articles and editorials,
more than 70 book chapters and some major textbooks on critical
care. He was invited to give some 550 lectures in 16 countries.
He held many positions with medical and critical-care associations.
Dr. Ron HOLLIDAY, a general surgeon at Victoria Hospital and
a professor of surgery at Western, says Doctor
SIBBALD was often
thinking of issues five or 10 years down the road. And he always
knew who to approach to get around the system. "We called it
the SIBBALD end run," he says.
Critical-care experts around the world knew him as a friend and
a trendsetter. "He was a fantastic scientist and a great clinician
respected by all," says Doctor Jean-Louis Vincent, a professor of
intensive care at the Free University of Brussels. "He could
always ask the right question and raise the appropriate issue
in any kind of debate or scientific discussion."
Bill SIBBALD, as his Friends called him, was the middle of three
children of Jack
SIBBALD, a banker, and Shirley (née
STONE) who
grew up in a suburb of Guelph, Ontario As a boy, he played basketball,
football, badminton and hockey.
Gale KAY, now a retired Presbyterian minister, babysat him when
he was about 12. "He was quite clear that he was going to be
a doctor," she says, "not that he wanted to be a doctor, but
that he was going to be one."
He was graduated from medical school at the University of Western
Ontario in 1970 and stayed on to complete a residency in internal
medicine in 1974. That was the year he married Connie
ECKERSLEY,
a nurse he worked with in intensive care.
From 1974 to 1976, he did a fellowship in critical-care trauma
at Wayne State University School of Medicine, in Detroit. The
specialty was in its infancy in Canada at the time, and he returned
to London as one of the country's few experts in the field.
At the time, Victoria Hospital had become "a massive zone of
deferred maintenance," according to Doctor David
NAYLOR, president
of the University of Toronto and a long-time friend. Doctor Adam
LINTON, the hospital's physician-in-chief, put the young Doctor
SIBBALD
in charge of the intensive-care department where he overcame
professional turf wars and put together a team of specialists
in medicine, surgery and anesthesia. Doctor Trevor
LOBB, an anesthetist
at the hospital, says Doctor
SIBBALD helped change "a glorified
recovery room" into a critical-care trauma centre that treated
patients flown in by helicopter and that trained fellows who
came from around the world. In 1976, he made the news for using
an armed forces pressure suit to control massive bleeding in
a patient. A year later, he was in the headlines for telling
a medical conference in France that the common practice of lowering
the head of a critically ill shock victim might actually have
detrimental effects.
In one highly publicized incident, Doctor
SIBBALD, accompanied by
Dr. HOLLIDAY, went to court in the middle of the night seeking
permission for a blood transfusion to save the life of a Jehovah's
witness boy. The judge bypassed the family's religious objections
by making the boy a ward of the court, allowing the procedure
to go ahead.
Much of Doctor
SIBBALD's research centred on sepsis (disease-causing
agents in the blood), trauma, blood substitutes, and ethical
issues involving life-support and end of life. In later years,
he branched out into the field of health-care policy and delivery.
For many years, he used sheep to study infections in people.
"In our research lab at Victoria Hospital, you could hear the
sheep baaing," Doctor
HOLLIDAY says. Doctor
SIBBALD introduced infections
into the animals and studied the effects. Then he treated the
sheep, so they didn't have to be destroyed.
He served as co-chairman of a Working Group on Critical Care
in Ontario, which presented its findings to the province's health
ministry in 1991. Over the years, he received many honours, including
a distinguished investigator award from the American College
of Critical Care Medicine in 1998.
Dr. SIBBALD turned down many job offers in the United States,
and in 2000 he moved to Toronto as Sunnybrook's physician-in-chief.
That put him on the front lines when many of the patients from
the 2003 epidemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome ended
up at Sunnybrook. He threw his back out while dealing with the
crisis, so his bed at home became the command post where he kept
in contact with officials from hospitals, government and the
military.
In one phone call, he told Doctor Tom
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART, director of critical
care at Toronto's Mount Sinai and University Health Network,
that his staff was starting to become ill. "He's a strong man,
but he broke down crying," said Doctor
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART. "It struck me how
soft and sensitive he is."
Two back operations followed. Doctor
SIBBALD returned to work after
each of them, even though he had to hobble around the hallways.
After the severe acute respiratory syndrome emergency ended,
Ontario's ministry of health set up a Critical Care Steering
Committee. Doctor
SIBBALD and Doctor
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART were among its members.
Many of Doctor
SIBBALD's ideas showed up in the report and are now
being implemented, Doctor
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART says.
In November, 2004, Doctor
SIBBALD was diagnosed with colon cancer.
He carried on working and, hoping for a remedy, sought treatment
at Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo. In early September,
he was told the end was near. He resigned as Sunnybrook's chief
of medicine on September 5 and spent the following week as a
patient in the hospital.
Staff members still came to him for advice. Doctor Andreas
LAUPACIS,
now the director of a research institute at Toronto's Saint Michael's
Hospital, asked for his opinion on an upcoming debate. "His eyes
lit up," Doctor
LAUPACIS says. "His energy came back. He said, 'Look
at this article and that article and here's the point I would
be making.' "
Dr. SIBBALD went Toronto on September 12. A day later, his fourth
grandchild was born in Vancouver. His son Martyn phoned to say
the baby would be called William. The next morning Doctor
SIBBALD
was shown an e-mailed photo of his new namesake. He died later
that day.
William John
SIBBALD was born in London, Ontario, on June 28,
1946. He died of colon cancer at his Toronto home on September 14,
2006. He was 60. He leaves his wife Connie; children Tammie,
Martyn, Robert, Katie and Georgie; four grandchildren; his mother,
Shirley, and sisters Nancy
DAVIDSON and Susan

Dr. Bill SIBBALD, 60: Intensive Care Unit pioneer
Physician-in-chief at Sunnybrook also noted scholar
'But his greatest achievements were with his family'
By Tanya TALAGA,
Health
Reporter
A doctor with the soul of a teacher, a father who took great
joy in his five children and his medical students, Doctor William
(Bill) John
SIBBALD thrived on pushing forward those who dared
to dream.
SIBBALD was a founder of critical or intensive care medicine
in North America -- a pioneer of setting up intense medical units
to treat fragile patients recovering from traumatic accidents,
exhaustive surgeries or life-threatening disease.
As physician-in-chief at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre,
SIBBALD
also presided over the hospital's critical care unit, which is
one of the largest in Canada, with almost 120 beds.
Surrounded by family,
SIBBALD, 60, died of cancer at home Thursday,
just days after he resigned from his position at Sunnybrook.
"I have met few scholars in medicine with his breadth and boundless
curiosity," said Doctor David
NAYLOR, president of the University
of Toronto.
The two men were Friends for nearly 20 years.
"Bill SIBBALD was an international giant in critical care medicine
truly one of the pioneers in the field."
Long before it was fashionable,
SIBBALD was drawing together
physicians, surgeons, anesthetists, nurses and others and creating
a team-based approach to treat medically fragile patients, said
NAYLOR.
"He built the Critical Care Trauma Unit at Victoria Hospital,
now London Health Sciences Centre, into a magnet for trainees
from around the world."
The author of countless academic papers and the editor of many
books, Doctor
SIBBALD's research interests and output was simply,
"extraordinary," said
NAYLOR. "
Toronto was fortunate to recruit
him."
SIBBALD graduated from the University of Western Ontario's medical
school in 1970.
He went on to specialize in internal medicine.
A passionate physician with a love of learning,
SIBBALD held
a variety of leadership positions at London, Western, the University
of Toronto and
at Sunnybrook.
"I'm glad people know of his international achievements," said
his son Robert
SIBBALD. "
But his greatest achievements were with
his family. That's what he focused on."
SIBBALD and his wife
Connie spent most of their lives in London,
Ontario, where they worked and raised a family of five.
SIBBALD
refused all offers from big health centres and universities in
the United States because he wanted to keep his then-young family
in London.
"He worked some pretty crazy hours but he still found time to
coach myself and my brother Martin in hockey," said Robert.
Leaving
London was difficult for the
SIBBALDs, but when the children
grew older and there was the chance to come to Sunnybrook and
the U of T, the family took it.
"He had a brilliant mind," said Leo
STEVEN,
Sunnybrook's chief
executive officer. "Whenever I met him, he'd be going a mile
a minute. He was constantly thinking of ways to promote medicine."
Enquiries, tributes and emails from colleagues all over the world
have been pouring into Sunnybrook during these past few days,
said Sunnybrook's Doctor Robert
FOWLER, who is
SIBBALD's friend
and colleague.
Hospital staff are mourning his passing; the critical care unit
he loved so deeply has been a "somber place" of late, added
FOWLER.
The chance to work with
SIBBALD was largely the reason
FOWLER
came back to Toronto from Stanford University in northern California.
"He really had this genuine passion in what he did and it was
infectious. He could spend five minutes with someone and he could
fire them up to take on the world."
Team building to care for patients and mentoring medical students,
health-care staff and aspiring leaders was a lifelong interest
of SIBBALD's.
Those who knew him regard this as one of his greatest strengths.
"He made people more productive and enthusiastic about their
own lives," said
FOWLER.
In his quest to educate the public on the importance of critical
care medicine,
SIBBALD was extremely supportive in providing
the Toronto Star exclusive access to Sunnybrook's staff and medical
units. The Star series "Situation Critical" was published last
November.
SIBBALD continued his position at Sunnybrook until his illness
made it impossible for him to continue working.
"He died at peace, surrounded by his family, after a very courageous
two-year battle with cancer," said
NAYLOR. "I miss him."
