Cavanagh served five years as an Air Force flight surgeon and currently acts as chief of aerospace medicine for the 138th Fighter Wing of the Oklahoma Air National Guard. Aerospace medicine maintains the health, safety and performance of those involved in air and space travel. “It’s the physiology of high performance flying,” says Cavanagh, a marathoner who regularly flies F-16 fighter jets. “I take care of pilots and study how environments such as excessive G-forces or hypoxic conditions have an effect on the body, and with that understanding we can help prevent accidents and 56 OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | JUNE 2010 ensure more safety.” An alumnus of the University of Oklahoma School of Medicine, Cavanagh enjoys teaching and shares his expertise with medical students and residents as well as patients. “I always encourage everyone to be active in some way. Work with your doctor or a fitness instructor to get started and create a training program where you’re doing something you like,” he says. “Whether you’re an elite professional, a weekend athlete or wanting to go from walking around the block to jogging 30 minutes, it’s important to make healthy choices and have a plan.” Cavanagh also serves as tournament physician for the Western Athletic Conference Basketball Tournament and team physician for three universities in Tulsa, Owasso High School and the Tulsa Drillers. – Rebecca Fast PHOTOGRAPHED BY JEREMY CHARLES.

St. Louis Ave., Tulsa, 74120 918.619.4400 The Tulsa-based Eye Institute is a comprehensive eye care center with a talented team of ophthalmologists, including Goldberg, who specializes in cornea and external diseases and refractive surgery. With 20 years of experience, Goldberg is a preferred surgeon for patients seeking laser refractive or cataract surgery. He is an expert in advanced small incision, no-stitch cataract surgery and enjoys the challenges of his profession. “I find diagnosing and treating infectious and immune mediated diseases of the anterior segment of the eye most challenging and interesting,” says Goldberg, a medical graduate of Duke University. “The surgical aspect of my work, though, is what I enjoy most – cataract, corneal and anterior segment (eye) surgery – both because of the challenge of the techniques, and because of the often immediate positive impact these procedures can have on quality of life for my patients.” Goldberg serves as the active chief of the Ophthalmology Section at both St. John Medical Center and Hillcrest Medical Center. He also participates in resident and student teaching at the University of Oklahoma School of Medicine-Tulsa and the Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. “New technologies have made cataract procedures safer and have helped our patients achieve better visual results,” he says. “Cataract surgery has a very low complication rate; in fact cataract surgery has one of the best safety profiles of any procedure in all of surgery and medicine.” – Rebecca Fast W.

We’re very pleased with the educational possibilities that our children have and are continuing to receive here,” he says. As an orthopedic surgeon for the McBride Clinic, Inc., in OKC, Funderburk specializes in sports medicine, including arthroscopy to elbows, knees, shoulders and wrists; joint reconstruction; knee replacements and care of upper extremity injury. 60 OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | JUNE 2010 Norman Regional Hospital Norman Clinic 950 N.

Funderburk has an extensive background in continuing medical education, presentations and research, and adds that he loves the fact that he gets to work with medical students. “I currently have a high school student shadowing my practice.

An asset to the Department of Pediatrics Division of Rheumatology at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and Children’s Hospital at OU Medical Center, she specializes in medicine that cares for people with inflammatory disease, autoimmune disease and various forms of arthritis. “There is quite a broad spectrum of diseases that we cover, and I’ve cared for kids who have gone undiagnosed for years,” she says. “Although some patients are short term, many become longitudinal relationships. That’s one of the things I enjoy the most about what I do – getting to see them grow and develop and improve.” While getting her start in general pediatrics on the East Coast, 62 OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | JUNE 2010 Obstetrics and Gynecology J.

Her fascination with the interplay between the two diseases helped pave the way for many successful years of dedicated professional practice, research and teaching of rheumatology. “The new medications available for the diseases are wonderful. Some meds will take children who are incredibly sick and make them virtually normal again,” O’Neil explains. “It’s different now than it was a few years ago. You can really make these kids better. It’s something that I know I can really make a difference doing and I love working with kids. They’re honest, fun, direct, and they rarely ever fake it.” – Meika Yates Hines PHOTOGRAPHED BY BRENT FUCHS. The Eye Institute 2000 S.

His extensive training in plastic and reconstructive surgery has made his practice a preferred choice by patients. He practices at Saint Francis Hospital and SouthCrest Hospital. According to Callegari, plastic surgery can include treating victims of injury, cancer, birth deformities, burns, fractures of bones of the face and hand and a variety of other problems. The diversity of his field is a characteristic Callegari finds rewarding. “Through my practice I have the opportunity to treat adults, children – both men and women – and perform in- and outpatient procedures,” says 64 OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | JUNE 2010 Callegari. “It’s especially rewarding to see a patient who has experienced a traumatic injury and through the correct treatment regain the functional use of their hand or other physical mobility.” He also notes that those who choose to have elective cosmetic surgery often feel less self-conscious and enjoy a renewed sense of confidence. His list of procedures include surgeries involving the hand, ears, nose, breast, brow and facelifts, scars, liposuction, tummy tucks and body contouring. Callegari is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Medical Association and the American Association for Hand Surgery. He is also a published author in plastic surgery journals and has presented scientific papers at national meetings. – Rebecca Fast PHOTOGRAPHED BY JEREMY CHARLES. Pediatric Gastroenterology G.

But when you give talks on the community level, you can influence the lives of dozens, if not hundreds, of people in one sitting,” Owens explains. A native of Panama, he also stays active with the Integris Latino Health initiative and has many Spanish-speaking patients who drive the extra miles from out of town to visit his family practice and learn at his speaking forums. “I enjoy the different perspectives of influence I can provide by working on two different levels – giving talks to groups and the community as well as serving my own patients. As a family doctor, you don’t just get to know your patients, but a lot of times, their children and grandchildren as well,” he says. “It’s really rewarding establishing long-term relationships with those families who are willing to come see you.” – Meika Yates Hines PHOTOGRAPHED BY BRENT FUCHS.

Board certified in general surgery, Rable has made it her mission to ensure that women get appropriate breast evaluations with as much ease as possible, whether for a routine annual exam or complex workup of a suspicious finding. “I am fortunate that the work I am passionate about is strongly supported by the health system in Norman,” she explains. “At our center, we are able to offer comprehensive imaging services including digital mammography, ultrasound, and stereotactic biopsy.” On her watch, the center has incorporated a surgical clinic into the 68 OKLAHOMA MAGAZINE | JUNE 2010 breast care center and facilitates high priority on evaluation, diagnosis and treatment. Operating on women with both benign and malignant diseases, Rable says that Norman Regional Hospital provides her with the tools and resources to deliver state-of-the-art technology and interventions. “With breast cancer, I find the process of evaluating each individual patient’s situation and developing a surgical plan particularly rewarding,” she says. “There is a lot of patient education involved. There are also so many personal and emotional issues that the patients are working through, and I appreciate their confidence and trust in me to help them through a very difficult time. The residents of Norman and the surrounding cities are a joy to meet and I feel privileged to care for them.” – Meika Yates Hines PHOTOGRAPHED BY BRENT FUCHS. Thoracic Surgery R.
