Heppnci came out Saturday to
honor one of its most distinguished
and well-liked citizens, Dr Wallace
Wolff, »ho has announced his
retirement after 36 years in Heppner
Dr Wolff came to Heppner in
1952. buying out the practice of Dr
Richard Oshca. who had entered the
army
Dr Wolff was here for one year,
when he too left for the army, retur
ning in 1953 to establish a permanent
practice which has endured to this
day
During his tune in Heppner. Dr
Woff has d»>ne surgery, delivered
babies and practiced psychiatry , a
diversity o f expertise that is
unknown in the modem world of
specialization.
"W e did quite a bit of surgery at
the hospital." Dr Wolff recalls,
"but by 1970 quite a bit of it had
fallen off " Delivering babies, also
one of the many duties of doctors at
that tunc, began to decline at Pioneer
Hospital in 19X0. and at the present
time no babies are delivered there
Dr Wolff also raised a family in
Heppner. he and his wife Rita had
five children His wife died in 1976
after being exposed to a heavy dose
of spray used to kill aphids in their
garden She died of complications
arising from organo phosphate
poisoning.
An avid gardener. Dr Wolff was
a charier member of the Heppner
Garden Club, and is still one of its
most active members He was also
past president of the Heppner
Chamber of Com m erce, went
through the chairs at the local Elks
laidgc and served as a member of
the Morrow County School Board
for 12 years He served as medical
advisor to a nurse practitioner in
Condon and Fossil for two years and
was on several other medical related
boards and associations
Born in 1916 on a Montana ranch
to Ira John and Sophie Marie Wolff.
Dr Wolff moved to Wisconsin when
he was 6 years old
He graduated from medical scfxxvl
at the University of Wisconsin in
1947, completed internship, spent
two years residency in Seattle and
worked for a doctor in White Salmon
before coming to Heppner to set up
practice in 1952
Dr Wolff said he has enjoyed his
practice in Heppner. and has
especially cherished the opportuni
ty to get to know his patients per
sonally. which is usually not possi
ble in larger cities.
On the difference between medical
practice now and in the 1950s. Dr
Wolff citicd the increased govern
ment regulations and of course the
specialization of doctors.
Also the costs were different in
1950s. "A n office visit was S3 50
and having a baby was S 125.*’ he
recalls
On Saturday night, a large group
of friends came to a dinner to honor
Dr Wolff and all he has done for the
community It was pointed out that
during the recent time when no doc
tors except Dr Wolff were practic
ing in H eppner, the Pioneer
Memorial Hospital would have had
to close its doors had he not been
here.
As a token of the town's apprec ia
tion. an all-expense paid trip to
Australia and New Zealand was
presented to the doctor who has
cared and given so much to
Heppner.
