Dale Fuller, MD
Radiation Oncologist -
ret.
After earning degrees in Pharmacy and Medicine from the
University of Iowa, and completing a residency at The University of
Iowa Hospitals, and service as a medical officer in the US Air
Force, Dr. and Mrs. Fuller (Jean) and their three children, Susan,
Catherine, and David, left Iowa City, and came to Dallas in 1968.
Dr. Fuller joined the medical staff at St. Paul Medical Center,
where he served as Medical Director of the St. Paul Center for
Radiation Oncology from 1970 through 1990. Dr. Fuller joined
Texas Oncology, P.A. in 1992, becoming the first Medical Director
for Radiation Oncology in this state-wide group, now including over
250 specialists in Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology,
Gynecologic Oncology, and Pediatric Oncology in cancer centers in
many cities across Texas.
Dr. Fuller served his profession in numerous capacities in
medical organizations at local, state and national levels.
After retiring from full-time practice in 1999, Dr. Fuller served
as a field surveyor for the Commission on Cancer of the American
College of Surgeons from 2000-2006. In that role he surveyed
87 different hospital cancer programs from coast to coast.
His goal was always to leave those programs better than he found
them, and in most instances he was successful. Dr. Fuller has
served his community in a number of roles, none more rewarding in
terms of personal satisfaction than his long term association with
Dallas' Ronald McDonald House, from its founding in the late 1970's
through the present date.
Dr. and Mrs. Fuller continue to be fortunate in having all three
of their children and their six grandchildren all living nearby, in
Dallas and Argyle, TX.
