Dr. Parry’s profound impact on improving health care in South Dakota spanned more than 40 years as a physician-practitioner, scientist, teacher, and leader of medical organizations, including, most notably, the state’s only medical school.
As a physician, Dr. Parry distinguished himself for his skills, knowledge, and compassion. One of South Dakota’s first pulmonologists, Dr. Parry’s work on cystic fibrosis inspired him to help launch and direct South Dakota’s Cystic Fibrosis Center.
It was under Dr. Parry’s leadership that USD’s medical school established unique and beneficial educational programs that enabled the institution to become one of the nation’s leading producers of rural physicians.
