Roswell Park ( surgeon ) Roswell Park ( May 4 , 1852 – February 15 , 1914 ) was an American physician , best known for starting Gratwick Research Laboratory in 1898 , which is now known as Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center . In 1900 , the Gratwick family of Buffalo helped to finance Parks laboratory with a $25,000 donation in memory of William Henry Gratwick , a patient of Parks . Park was also a professor of surgery at the University at Buffalo Medical School and a surgeon at Buffalo General Hospital . When Park was thirty-one , he went to Buffalo , New York in 1883 . He came from Chicago where he received his Doctor of Medicine degree from Northwestern University in 1876 . He received his B.A . in 1872 and M.A . in 1875 from Racine College in Racine , Wisconsin . He then went on to finish his Doctor of Medicine studies at the Northwestern University School of Medicine in 1876 . Park received an honorary M.A . from Harvard University in 1895 and an honorary LL.D . from Yale University . Over the years he served on many boards , both national and international . By 1914 , the total number of textbooks , articles , and monographs that he wrote reached 167 . President McKinley assassination . Buffalo was the host of the Pan-American Exposition in 1901 . That year , President William McKinley was not even a year into his second term . He was staying in his summer home in Canton , Ohio when he left his summer home for the exposition fairgrounds . McKinley gave a speech at the Temple of Music on the Exposition grounds when Leon Czolgosz came from the crowd and shot McKinley twice at point-blank range . McKinley was taken to a hospital on the fairgrounds . It took nearly 40 minutes for the first surgeon to show up . Herman Mynter , a general surgeon from Buffalo , was the first to diagnose the president . Not long after Mynters examination was finished , Matthew Derbyshire Mann arrived . After the two talked , it was agreed upon to perform the abdominal exploration . President McKinley agreed to the exploration . Work was done by Mann to try to find the bullet and treat the wounds . Efforts were made to contact Park , but he was in the middle of a neck dissection at Niagara Falls Memorial Hospital . As described years later by Parks son , the messenger ran into the operation room and told Park that he was needed immediately . Park is claimed to have replied Dont you see , I cant leave . I am in the middle of a case even if it were for the President of the United States? ; the messenger replied , Doctor , it is for the President of the United States . Park proceeded to finish the operation . Despite the importance of the situation , Park was only able to get to the exposition hospital via a train . The train engine and coal car were sent to Niagara Falls to pick him up and return to Buffalo , it held the record time between the two points at that time . The train was driven by Charles Meyers and was the only train allowed into the Pan Am . He was known after that as Pan American Charlie and died in 1934 . Once Park arrived , Mann was about to close up McKinley and asked Park if there should be any placement of drains . Park told Mann that he was the best man to make that decision given the scenario . Mann decided not to drain the abdomen since there was no excess blood or fluid around to be drained . Park arranged for some nurses from the exposition to look over McKinley at the Milburn home until nurses from the army could arrive . Despite some promising results McKinley died in the Milburn home .
