In Remembrance – Shlomo Pomeranz

Shlomo Pomeranz, MD
1950-1998

Professor Shlomo Pomeranz died on November 23, 1998 from metastatic Ewing’s sarcoma. He was Chairman of the Division of Neurology and Neurosurgery at the Hebrew University and Hadassah Medical School and was one of Israel’s best known neurosurgeons. Born in Haifa, Israel in 1950, he completed high school in Kansas. He attended the University of Kansas and the University of Wisconsin Madison, and then graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Tel Aviv Medical School. He served as a combat physician for the Israeli Defense Forces from 1978 to 1982 and completed his neurosurgical residency at Hadassah Medical School in 1989. He then did fellowship training in microneurosurgery and cranial base surgery at the Resuscitation Research Center at the University of Pittsburgh. He returned to Israel in 1985 where he would become a tenured neurosurgeon at Hadassah University Hospital. He was a member of several medical organizations, including the North American Skull Base Society, and he had published more than fifty scientific articles and book chapters. Shlomo was a great surgeon, a good human being, and a caring individual. Two years ago, while discussing the plight of the uninsured, he said it all came down to “mitzvah”, a Hebrew word for good deeds. That was what Shlomo was all about. He is survived by his wife Sue Lazarus and his daughters Michel, 16, and Dana, 14. We are all diminished by his departure.
