Doctor’s Day
I
f you have ever wondered where the
nurse who took your vitals during
your last medical appointment
went to school, or the emergency
medical services technician (EMT) who
responded to your 911 call learned their
skills, or the diagnostic sonographer
who ran the sonogram that revealed
the gender of your little bundle of joy
received training, it was likely to have
been right here at Midland College.
Midland College Health Sciences
provides nine successful programs,
which include our:
• two-year associate degree nursing program;
• one-year vocational nursing program;
• emergency medical technician certification;
• diagnostic medical sonography program;
• respiratory care therapist program;
• healthy information management program;
• and the fire academy program.
The F. Marie Hall SimLife Center on the Midland College campus is both
an educational and clinical laboratory that provides state of the art innovative
instruction and patient care. Simulation mannequins, a birthing simulator,
recording devices and healthcare equipment are used for students training in
a variety of medical fields and health care professions. We are very proud that
programming at the F. Marie Hall SimLife Center at Midland College includes
collaboration with Midland Memorial Hospital and Texas Tech University
Health Sciences Center at the Permian Basin.
Our very own Dr. Gregory Bartha served as Chief Medical Director of
HospiceMidland for many years, and ran a very busy local private practice. He
has selflessly served on numerous nonprofit and educational boards, including
our Midland College Foundation Board. Although most who retire do so with
anticipation of more time to now be on the golf course, leisurely travels and time
with the grandchildren, Dr. Bartha chose to open an emergency medical clinic
in rural Uganda. There he sees many patients who live in extremely difficult
situations. He treats patients, teaches and assists with services at the village
church. His days are long, although you would never know it by listening to
him speak of his devotion to the villagers. I know you will be as inspired by his
enclosed story and the accompanying photographs as we are.
Lastly, thank you again to each of you who has supported our Doctors Day
Scholarship fund. Not only does this scholarship help our students pursuing a
medical career, it honors our local physicians, as well. This program would not
realize the success it does without the continuing efforts of Jann Weisenfeld. Thanks to your generous gifts, $29,080.00 was contributed to the scholarship.
Thank you always for your friendship and support. We are looking forward
to an exciting fall.

LAURIE FITZGERALD
was born in Memphis,
Tennessee but didn’t stay
there long. Her family
moved to Amarillo,
and she stayed until
she got married. After
her husband graduated
from UT they moved
to Midland. They
subsequently divorced but
Laurie, who calls Midland home, stayed and has
lived here for 29 years. She has 3 daughters and 4
grandchildren. “They are the loves of my life. I love
my children but grandchildren hold a special place
in my heart,” she said.
Laurie originally worked for America West
Airlines when she moved to Midland, however
when they pulled out she qualified for the Job
Training Program Act. Using the Job Training
Program Act, Laurie came to Midland College
where she received her Associate Degree in
Nursing and became an RN. She began her nursing
career with Medical Center Hospital, in Odessa, in
their neonatal ICU. She moved on to Texas Tech
University Health Sciences Center in Odessa as
a case worker for their Maternal Infant Health
Program. Laurie said, “We partnered with WIC to
educate new mothers and help them find assistance
for prenatal care. I had specialized training in
breastfeeding education and Texas Health Steps.”
Obstetrics has been Laurie’s passion since
she worked for an OB-Gyn in Amarillo and he
taught her to do sonograms. When she heard
that Midland College was starting a Sonography
program she signed up for the first class. After
she graduated for the second time from MC, she
went to work for Midland Memorial Hospital, in
general ultrasound and registered in Obstetrics
and abdominal ultrasound. “But again the call of
the OB-Gyn field found me and I went to work for
TTHSC Odessa doing high risk OB ultrasound.
While there I received a certificate in fetal nuchal
translucency screening,” she said.
In 2007 she began her teaching career with MC
as Clinical Director of the Sonography Program.
She teaches Sonography of the Abdominopelvic
Cavity, Sonography of OB/GYN, Sonography
of Superficial Structures, Advanced Ultrasound
Professionalism and Registry Review, and has
taught Medical Terminology.
Laurie loves to travel, and Europe has been
her favorite place to visit. Most of her traveling
has been done with the Lee High Chorale. What
she enjoys most is seeing students go to places
they might have never seen and watching them be
amazed by history of other countries and our own
country. Two years ago, Laurie had the privilege
of traveling to the Russian country of Moldova. “It
is a very poor country and we worked through a
local church and seminary to distribute food to the
elderly and we held a conference for the women of
that country. One of my favorite memories of that
conference was handing out the door prizes to the
women. At first they were very shy about coming
down front to see what they had won but by the
second day they were practically running. They
were poor people and very grateful for everything
they received,” said Laurie.
Laurie loves working with the state of the art
simulation and ultrasound equipment in the
F. Marie Hall SimLife Center, which she used last
spring to help her daughter in Houston, teach her
7th grade science class human anatomy.
“Get to know your instructors.
We are here to help you be
successful. We really want you to
SUCCEED.”

“Work and study hard. Be the best and
don’t settle for doing just enough.
Work, accomplish and live your dreams.”
LELAND HART was
born in Ft. Stockton, and
was adopted at the age
of 3 by the Hart Family.
He was raised in Denver
City, where he graduated
from high school. His
mother was a homemaker
who stayed home and
took care of him and his
younger brother. His dad
was a roofer for 40 years,
farmed and owned a boot and shoe sales/repair
business before he retired.
Leland attended Barean School of the Bible for
ministerial studies. He later received his Emergency
Medical Technician (EMT) certification in 1981
through the local EMS in Denver City, and then
received Paramedic training though Howard
College in Big Spring. Finally he completed and
received an Associate of Science Degree from
Midland College.
He has tried his hand at many careers over
the years, working as Supermarket Manager,
in the Yoakum County Sheriff ’s Office, and in
ministry in churches. He began working in the
Emergency Medicine field as a part-time EMS
driver until he received his EMT and then worked
in EMS. He moved on to become a Paramedic
for Ward County EMS and then became the
Director. After Ward County, he began working
for the Texas Department of State Health Services,
headquartered in Midland as an Inspector/
Investigator, and finally moved to EMS Program
Director at Midland College.
Leland has been a part-time (intermittent)
employee of the National Disaster Medical System
on a Disaster Medical Assistance Team. The team
responds to national catastrophic events and high
profile national events. “I have worked several
large scale disasters including the 9-11-2001
terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center and
Hurricane Katrina to name a few,” said Leland. He
also worked with the team at Salt Lake City Winter
Olympics in 2002, President George W. Bush’s
second inauguration, and the 2014 Republican
Convention.
His plans are to work at Midland College until
he retires and then spend his summers with his
daughter and grandbaby that is due to arrive in
November, and the rest of the year with his son and
daughter that live in Denver City and Lubbock and
their children.
Leland loves Midland College and “the people
that I have worked with. I have the greatest coworkers in the world right here at MC. I love
the family environment. MC’s reputation in the
community and beyond is awesome and I’m glad to
be a part of it.”

CINDY MADEWELL
was born in Bangor,
Maine and is the oldest
of three children. She
is an Air Force brat
and has lived in Maine,
Louisiana, California,
Oklahoma, Florida, and
Texas! Her parents met
on a blind date and were
married for 50 years until
her dad passed away. Cindy has two daughters,
Haley, a junior at Texas A&M University, and
Megan, who is a senior in high school. She has 2
dogs, Preston and Lucy and some rescued turtles in
her backyard.
After Cindy graduated from Broken Arrow
High School, she went to Tulsa Junior College,
where unfortunately she managed to fail out! She
decided to go to travel agency school and worked
for United Airlines as a gate agent and baggage
handler for a while. She decided that wasn’t what
she really wanted to do and returned to school at
the University of Oklahoma, where she graduated
with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. After
graduation she worked for about 15 years as an
ICU and recovery room nurse. It was then she
decided that teaching was something she wanted to
do so she went back to school again and graduated
from the University of Texas at El Paso with a
Master’s of Nursing Education degree.
Cindy is very involved at St. Ann’s Catholic
Church in Midland where she has taught religious
education to middle school and high school
students for about six years. She loves to travel, and
her favorite thing to do is sit in the sun with a book
(actually a Kindle) in her hand. Cindy said, “I was
a big nerd growing up, preferring things like the
library club, student council, and the cafeteria club
(yes...that was a real thing).”
One of her favorite aspects of her job is being
able to give tours of the F. Marie Hall SimLife
Center at Midland College. She gives tours
to students of all ages and to members of the
community. “It’s a beautiful facility with interesting
pieces of equipment and mannequins that
behave as humans. They blink, breathe, talk, have
emergency medical conditions such as seizures,
they bleed, and even throw up. It’s a fun place to be,
and I like to think that some students will choose
to become health care providers after seeing it in
action,” she said.
Her advice for new students is to be openminded and take the opportunity to grow
academically, socially, and spiritually. Try to give
back through service projects, and have fun along
the way. Have a flexible end goal in mind, and
know that grades are not the only thing that defines
you as a person.
“Oh, and text your
mom every day.”

“Hard work and perseverance are far more important than
the numbers on a standardized test (or what your third
grade teacher may have said). If you really want something,
want to achieve something, don’t let anyone tell you it can’t
be done. Just keep your eye on your goal and work for it.”
DR. ELIZABETH
NEICHTER grew up
in the northern part of
the Midwest enjoying
summers on Lake
Michigan and Lake
Superior and suffering
through the glass
shattering cold during the
winter. She attended the
University of Kentucky in
Lexington and married a Kentuckian. “I came to
love the spring here, and it was nice not to have too
many below zero winters!” she said.
Elizabeth went to graduate school at the
University of Louisville and Spalding University,
where she earned her doctorate. Her field of study
was Health Information Management. She said,
“It is the perfect career for someone who likes the
challenges of the medical field without the handson direct patient care part.” She was the Director of
a Health Information Management department at
a hospital and then worked for a research physician
and consulting firm before going into teaching.
One of her favorite things is her German
Shepherd dog, Chloe Faith, who can read. Chloe
Faith knows 10 words - including the names of her
two favorite toys. You just show her a flash card
with the word on it and she’ll perform the action
asked for. So, she can read SIT, DOWN, PLACE…
as well as T-REX and PIGGY (her favorite toys). She also knows the basic colors- blue, red, yellow
and green. If you ask her to bring you a red ball,
she brings the red one. Ask for green and you get
green. Elizabeth has been lucky enough to travel over
the past few years with Africa being her favorite
destination. She has been twice and is trying
to figure out how to get back. “It is a magical
place and being in the wild with elephants, lions,
leopards and all the antelope is an unbelievable
experience,” said Dr. Neichter.
In the immediate future, Dr. Neichter will
continue supporting the HIM department at
Midland College. Elizabeth said, “I love Midland
College because it is a place where students can
bring their dreams and work to make those dreams
come true in a supportive and caring environment. Education truly changes your life.”

MR. ROBERT
WEIDMANN was born
at Holloman, A.F.B, in
New Mexico, where
his dad was stationed
at White Sands Missile
Range with the Navy.
Shortly thereafter his
family moved to Orange
County, California, where
he was raised. “There
was a time while I was growing up that both of my
parents worked at Disneyland and I got to go every
day!” said Robert.
Robert graduated from Southern Utah
University with a degree in Zoology and was then
trained as a Respiratory Therapist in Long Beach
California. He is Certified and Registered as both a
Respiratory Therapist and as a Pulmonary Function
Technologist, has a credential as a Neonatal/
Pediatric Specialist, and has had special training in
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Wound Care.
He has worked at St. Joseph’s Hospital and
Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) in
Orange, California; Memorial Medical Center and
Miller Children’s and Women’s Hospital in Long
Beach, California; Valley View Medical Center in
Cedar City, UT; Midland Memorial Hospital; and
Medical Center Hospital in Odessa.
Robert says, “I have a terrific family. My
amazing wife and I have 5 grown children (3 boys
and 2 girls). I have 2 daughters-in-law and 2 sonsin-law. I also have 6, soon to be 7 grandchildren.”
He loves sports and was able to have his
education paid for by a baseball scholarship.
His most unique trip was when he went to
Afghanistan to help teach physicians about critical
care medicine (particularly about mechanical
ventilation). He lived in Kabul for about a month
across the street from the Wazir Akbar Khan
Hospital, which is the premiere orthopedic and
trauma surgery hospital in the country. He taught
residents in surgery and internal medicine and
occasionally students from the medical school.
Robert loves to teach and learn, so he plans to
do both as long as he can.
“Use all the resources that are
available. You are not in this
alone. There are many people
on campus ready and willing to
help you succeed. There are also
many services and programs
which can and will be of great
benefit to you.”

R
ichard Taylor was born
in Midland, TX in 1973,
and graduated from
Midland High School. He was
the youngest of three kids, with
two sisters, 10 and 12 years older
than him. His parents divorced
when he was four years old but they remained good
friends.
Richie married a childhood friend when he
was 21 years old and they had three children;
Bryson 19, Blayne, 17, and Brittany 14. He went
back to school at Midland College in 1996 and
earned 19 credit hours but due to his growing
family and hours at work he decided to stop going
to school and focus on work. “I was definitely a
nontraditional student,” said Richie.
He became interested in Psychology after
a lifelong battle with major depression. “Even
when I was a small boy the littlest things would
send me into dark regular periods of depression,”
he said. When Richie was 33 years old, his mom
was diagnosed with cancer and subsequently
passed away. After that he went into a deep dark
depression, during which he was working an
extremely stressful job. Richie said, “You could say
my grief, depression, stress, and money issues made
the right ingredients for me to experiment with
alcohol and drugs. I was hooked instantly. All of
those feelings were instantly numb.”
It might have seemed like it worked for a little
bit, which can be common for many people at
first. “But addiction always gets to a place where it
doesn’t work,” said Richie. He became addicted to
drugs and alcohol. He eventually lost his job and
marriage. “I was so broken I had an overdose that
put me into a coma for four days,” said Richie. His
family was faced with the decision of putting him
into a nursing home.
Richie survived but he does have some
lingering complications from the overdose. He was
finally diagnosed properly with major depressive
RICHARD
TAYLOR
disorder and has been
getting the proper medical
treatment since. “I would love
to say that that incident got me
sober but it did not. I had 2 or 3 more
relapses after that. My recovery was not a
perfect journey,” he said. Once he had some
recovery under his belt, he decided to go back
to Midland College and pursue a degree as an
alcohol and drug counselor.
Richie said, “I thought that if anyone could
relate to another addict, alcoholic, or person
suffering from depression, it could be me.” From
the very first class he fell in love with the ADAC
program at MC. Before he knew it, he had found
his passion, Psychology. “I learned so much
about myself, life, people, and my addiction. I can
honestly say I don’t think I would be sober today
without the knowledge I learned from Chesly Herd
and her staff,” he said.
One thing Richie learned is to get out of the
“shaming game” from relapses. Chesly [Herd]
taught him to pick himself up, brush himself off
and to learn from the experience. During this
time he also learned the importance of getting
depression treated and about having a dual
diagnosis, for example substance abuse and major
depression, which he had suffered from.
Richie made many great friends in the ADAC
program, and stays in touch with them to this day.
“I must say that the ADAC grads from MC who
work in the recovery field are highly respected in
the recovery community,” said Richie. His plans
for the future are to pursue a bachelor’s degree in
Psychology and possibly even a master’s degree, in
order to be a family counselor.
“The ADAC program at Midland College is a
class act and it will definitely get you prepared to
be a Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor. I am
proud to say that I have graduated Midland College
and I’m now proud to be an alumni of Midland
College,” said Richie.
“I’m proud to say I graduated Midland College with a 3.74 GPA. Not bad for someone who’s brain should be
fried as they say. I want people to know that addiction can happen to anyone, it happened to me at 33 years
old. It happens to good people every day. If I survived addiction and major depression anyone can do this.
There is hope and a solution. The number one weapon for me to battle addiction was to get educated about
my disease.”

DR. GREGORY BARTHA
A Man of Medicine, Mission, and Miracles
There are people in this world who
we may aspire to be like because who
they are as a person is one-of-a-kind,
and for Midland, one of those people
is Dr. Gregory Bartha.
Dr. Bartha, was raised in Midland and
graduated from Midland High School, and went on
to attend Yale Medical School. After he received his Medical Doctorate, Dr.
Bartha came back home to Midland, where has
been a practicing physician for over 25 years. He
has worked in many positions, most recently as the
Chief Medical Director of HospiceMidland. After
13 years in this position, Dr. Bartha decided to use
his skills and knowledge to help those in need in
Uganda.
Dr. Bartha began his mission work in Uganda
on mission trips he took with his church, First
Presbyterian Church of Midland. While he was
in Uganda he witnessed the vital needs of the
people and decided to find a way he could help. In
November 2014, Dr. Bartha, along with another
medical officer, and Pastor Mubbi Simon Peter of
DEYWA Ministries opened an emergency medical
clinic, Cross Emergency Medical Clinic, in rural
Uganda. The clinic serves over 3,000 patients a
month from different regions of Uganda that need
8 MIDLAND COLLEGE FOUNDATION | SUMMER 2015
medical care.
“My initial observation was that life is very
hard for the people here. They are very poor and
have few services available for them. Most engage
in hard physical labor, they walk or bicycle long
distances while sometimes carrying heavy loads.
Electricity is in short supply and water wells are the
only source of clean water,” said Dr. Bartha.
While there are some government health
clinics present in Uganda, there is very little access
to medical supplies and the people have difficulty
accessing them because of the transportation
struggles they face. In addition to medical care,
Dr. Bartha and his associates are providing health
education and disease control for the vulnerable
members of the rural communities, especially
the mothers and children who are often the most
affected groups.
During the process of opening the clinic, Dr.
Bartha has worked with Pastor Mubbi Simon Peter,
a native Ugandan who has a degree in organization
and management. Pastor Simon Peter rented a
building that was suitable for the clinic, got supplies
and staffing, and registered the clinic with the
government health authorities. The process to get
everything ready lasted about three months. They
have plans for the near future to build a better
facility for the clinic, do more medical outreach
to different communities, and offer more surgical
services.
“It has been a joy for me to work with the
people here. I have a great relationship with the
young medical officer at the clinic. He has taught
me much about the treatment of malaria and the
different ways it can present. The teachers and
pastors are so passionate about their work. They
are providing valuable services with very limited
resources. I am inspired and humbled by their hard
work and dedication,” said Dr. Bartha.
Dr. Bartha is living in a village about an
hour from Mbale, the main city in the area. On a
typical day for Dr. Bartha, a driver picks him up
around 7:30 a.m. and takes him to a school where
he teaches a basic health class. After he is done
teaching he heads to the clinic to see patients. On
a normal day there about 40 patients that come in
for treatment. At the clinic there is a small ward
where people who are more seriously ill are kept
overnight and sometimes for several days, and Dr.
Bartha checks in on them. He usually works until
about 6 p.m. when the driver takes him back home.
Dr. Bartha likes to spend his evenings reading,
studying, and preparing for the next day. He
“The best way [to volunteer] would be
for people to travel to a third world
country, preferably on a mission trip.
My advice would be to go out to the
villages, talk with the people about
their problems, and see how they live.”
frequently must travel to Mbale, the main city, to
get medical supplies and to take patients to the
regional hospital for additional treatment. On
Sundays, Dr. Bartha helps with the services at
Pastor Simon Peter’s church.
Mission work has been important to Dr.
Bartha for many years, and he hopes more people
will volunteer their time to help. Dr. Bartha said,
“The best way [to volunteer] would be for people
to travel to a third world country, preferably on a
mission trip. My advice would be to go out to the
villages, talk with the people about their problems,
and see how they live.” He is working on a blog
where he is documenting his experience and
thoughts (www.theformulavita.com), and will be
making some presentations when he returns to
Midland in late September of this year.
Dr. Bartha has been a member of the Midland
College Foundation Board since 2001.
