I like Dr. Red Duke James H. Red Duke Jr. is professor of clinical sciences at U.T. Health and Science Center and professor of surgery at U.T. Houston Medical School. Dr. "Red" Duke graduated from Hillsboro High School and later earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Texas A&M University in 1950. After a two-year tour of duty as a tank officer in the 2nd Armored Division of the U.S. Army, he went on to earn a divinity degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1955. However, "Red’s" lifelong desire to become a doctor prevailed and he enrolled in the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, from which he received his M.D. in 1960. Dr. Duke completed his internship in internal medicine and his residency in general surgery at Dallas’ Parkland Memorial Hospital in 1965. Dr. Duke has served as special assistant to the president of the UT Health Science Center and holds one of the distinguished professorships at the UT Medical School as the John B. Holmes Professor of Clinical Sciences. He established Houston’s Hermann Hospital Life Flight operations in 1976 and remains the medical director of its trauma and emergency services. Dr. Duke is a founding member of the American Trauma Society and is an advanced trauma life support instructor for the American College of Surgeons. He was named "Surgeon of the Year’ by the James F. Mitchell Foundation in 1988. Not only is Dr. Duke a trauma surgeon, he also is one of the most recognized television personalities in his field, as determined by the Gallup Organization, Inc. He is the host of the nationally syndicated "Texas Health Reports" and hosted the former PBS series, "Bodywatch". Dr. Duke has been featured on such programs as PM Magazine, NBC Nightly News, The Today Show and the "Buck James" television series.
