Obituary: Pioneering pain medicine specialist Dr Ian Painter dies

Posted on by

Dr Ian Painter was admired by friends, not just for his professional achievements, but for his warmth, pragmatism, honesty, and wicked sense of humour. Photo: Supplied

IAN PAINTER 19452014

Dr Ian Painter was an anaesthetist and a brilliant pain physician, working in one of the most challenging areas of medicine. His dedication, professionalism and commitment made a difference to many people's lives in both Australia and Europe.

When he began to practice pain medicine in the late seventies, it was a relatively new speciality and he was one of the first doctors in Australia to do so. Then, as now, pain medicine presents a variety of challenges for both patient and clinician.

For the patient, there are few things more debilitating than chronic unrelieved pain. Often, despite all measures and interventions, the patient's pain continues. To share this journey with a patient who is suffering such terrible pain requires patience, reassurance and honesty. Not every doctor is capable of this but Painter excelled at it.

Ian Miller Painter was born in in the shadow of World War II in Annandale on April 3, 1945, the son of Doug Painter and his wife Madge (nee Kernohan). He was the eldest of three, and had a younger brother, Robert, and a younger sister, Heather.

Doug was irreversibly affected by his experiences in the war and suffered prolonged periods of ill health, which had a lasting impact on family life. Money was often scarce and Madge worked hard to look after Doug and the children and keep the family together.

In the economic and family stress of those times Ian's childhood was marked by adversity, and that might well have daunted someone else. However by developing an early strength of character, he learned how to face difficult situations with positivity and courage. It was something which he would do for the rest of his life.

As a child, Ian spent a lot of time with his uncle in Otford, then a small coal mining village in the Northern Illawarra. This was a happy place for him, growing up in the freedom of the Australian bush, and he flourished there.

VJH opens doors for medical students

New facilities at Vernon Jubilee Hospital could alleviate the North Okanagans doctor shortage.

Renovated medical school space was unveiled on the fifth floor of the Polson Tower Friday.

We hope they will stay and practise and call this region home, said Eric Foster, Vernon-Monashee MLA, of the students in the University of B.C.s southern medical program.

And that is certainly something Julia Hassler is considering.

I love Vernon, Im sold, said the third-year medical student who is from Saskatchewan.

Staying here could become more likely if Hassler ultimately becomes a family doctor, but she may have to move elsewhere if she specializes in obstetrics.

The new academic space features centralized education areas, a clinical skills room and two video conferencing rooms.

Its nice to have a place to study, said Erin Charman, a third-year medical student from Castlegar.

As a volunteer member, the incumbents would serve for a three-year term. Interested applicants must submit a cover letter, resume and written references for consideration by a deadline of March 20. All applicants must explain why they feel they would be best suited for this position, a NOSM news release says.
