Editorial
By
Manuel Luciano da Silva, M. D.
It was on Sunday, March 17, 1963, that I visited Bristol, Rhode Island, for the first time in my life! I was finishing in June of the same year my fellowship of three years in Internal Medicine at the famous Lahey Clinic in Boston, and I was looking for a place in New England to start my private practice. I had invitations to go to the North of New Bedford, to Fall River and East Providence, because of the large Portuguese speaking population in those areas. But, I must confess, I did not know that Bristol, Rhode Island, even existed and that it had such a high percentage of Portuguese speaking inhabitants!
So on that third March Sunday, early in the morning, with my wife Silvia and our first son Manuel of one year old, we started exploring the southern New England. We went all way down to Newport which we found very interesting and attractive because of so many historical palaces. On the way back I decided to cross the Mount Hope Bridge and enter Bristol. We passed through Hope Street about two o'clock. It was a beautiful day, but cold, and the street was deserted.
Further up on Hope Street I noticed a sign for the Bristol County Medical Center. As a matter of fact I passed it and had to backed up slowly to be able to enter into the parking lot. There were only two cars in the parking lot. I entered the pharmacy, introduced my self to the pharmacist, Mr. Joseph Novach, and asked him what kind of Medical Clinic was this. He told me it was new, it had been inaugurated one month ago, but if I want to know more about it, I could speak with the president, Dr. Charles Millard, who was on call that afternoon in his office.
I said yes. He took me to Dr. Millard's office. I introduced myself as the Chief Fellow at Lahey Clinic, I had passed my Medical Boards, I spoke English, Portuguese and Spanish fluently and was looking for a group practice to work as a physician. Within two minutes Dr. Millard offered me a job to start working at the Bristol County Medical Center on Monday! I thanked him very much for the honor but I still had to finish my contract with Lahey Clinic until the end of June. But on Monday morning I got a call from Dr. Zellman, Secretary of the Lahey Clinic Foundation, about a telephone call he had received from a Dr. Millard in Rhode Island, who wanted a telegram about my credentials as a physician. I said: "Sent it to him". That was enough to confirm my medical credentials.
In the meanwhile I had been invited to stay as a permanent staff member at the Lahey Clinic and also to go back to Coimbra, Portugal (my Medical School) and become an assistant professor of Pediatrics. I did not take the offer of the Lahey Clinic because they used then the pyramid type of vacations and the doctors at the bottom of the pyramid took vacations only when the doctors with seniority did not want. I wanted more freedom to visit Portugal when necessary because of my mother and family there. (I am an American citizen since birth, because even though I was born in Portugal, my father was an American citizen before I was born).
I did not go back to Coimbra Medical School because of the wars in Angola, Mozambique and Portuguese Guinea. If I returned I would have been called to serve in the Portuguese Armed Forces and certainly I would have been sent to the African wars. I lost there two of my fellow medical students. I am sure as a physician in Portugal and my wife as a school teacher we would have succeeded there. But our destiny was different. We came to Bristol, Rhode Island, and we considered ourselves very lucky and grateful! So on July 1st, 1963, on a Monday, I started practicing medicine at the Bristol Medial County Center because of the quick decision by Dr. Charles Millard.
Dr. Charles E. Millard
It did not take long for me to realize that the creation of the Bristol County Medical Center had been the realization of Dr. Charles Millard's dream! He was able to persuade other physicians to assume with him such great responsibility: Robert Drew, Dr. Paulo Botelho and Dr. John Bernardo. Dr. Millard got his medical license to practice medicine on April 18, 1946. (I had been an immigrant from Continental Portugal, in Brooklyn, New York, for only three months!…)
He began his practice (1946) as a solo practitioner, in Warren, Rhode Island. In those days , most of the job of the medical doctors consisted of making house calls. What a contrast with today's practice. Office visits were $2.00 and house calls $3.00 There was a shortage of physicians and Dr. Millard soon had a large practice. The patients came to his house, at all hours of the day and night. He was on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week
The physicians of the Bristol County did not cover each other. He worked unbelievably hours. His office hours were about two hours a day, because the rest of time he was doing house calls. He practiced with this set up for 17 years! Sometimes he was so tired and exhausted he even went to Boston to sleep in a hotel! Under these circumstances he had a dream. He decided to approach Dr. Paul Botelho, fluent in Portuguese, from Bristol, and discussed with him the idea of forming a Medical Group. They agreed in principle and brought into partnership Dr. Robert Drew, from Barrington, and Dr. John Bernardo, a general surgeon.
The group decided to hire Dr. Victor de Medeiros, another physician fluent in Portuguese, and construction of the first building was started in Bristol in 1962 at 1180 Hope Street. The Bristol County Medical Center was officially opened to the public on Saturday, February 16, 1963. It had a staff of four general family practitioners, one office manager, 2 laboratory technicians and 5 Dr's medical assistants! When I joined the Medical Center on July 1st, 1963 I was Dr. number five. I retired from the Medical Center on October 12, 1998. I was the physician who spent more years being part of the staff of the Bristol Medical Center: more than thirty five years of continuous practice! I gave my heart and soul to the mains objectives of the Bristol County Medical Center : "dedicated to excellence and health of the community".
Today (January 2000), the Bristol County Medical Center is the largest private clinic in the state of Rhode Island. It has more than fifty practicing physicians including all the specialists who give consultations at the Medical Center. I want to salute Dr. Charles Millard for his vision and leadership in bring together all other medical colleagues to start and to develop the Bristol Medical Center to become one of the first class medical institutions in Rhode Island. I am proud to have been part of this magnificent medical enterprise.
I want to pay publicly my sincere homage to Dr. Charles Millard, by displaying his magnificent achievements on my website, so that various generations will know of his example as an excellent physician and leader in the American community. I also want to wish him long life and happiness in his retirement. Do fundo do meu coração um muito obrigado ao Dr. Millard! From the bottom of my heart a most sincere thanks to Dr. Millard!

Dr. Chapin was one of the nation's leading authorities on infectious and contagious diseases. The Charles V. Chapin Hospital was named in his honor in recognition of his outstanding work in this field. The Rhode Island Medical Society described him as the “greatest [physician] who has yet lived in R.I.” (Rhode Island Medical Journal; August 1972, Vol. 62, p. 301.
