New Board Member – Welcome, Lanny F. Wilson, MD!
|

Lanny F. Wilson, MD
Obstetrics and Gynecology, AdventHealth

Biography
Dr. Lanny F. Wilson grew up in rural, Western Kentucky on a dairy and tobacco farm near the small town of Fancy Farm, Kentucky. He was valedictorian of his graduating class in 1968 and received a scholarship to attend Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. Dr. Wilson received his B.A. in Psychology from Northwestern in 1972 and M.D. at its Chicago campus in 1975; but he elected Loyola University in Maywood, Illinois for his Residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology between 1975 and 1979.
|
|
Upon completion of his Residency, Dr. Wilson began a fulltime practice of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Advent Health’s Hospital in Hinsdale, Illinois. After more than 6,000 infant deliveries, his last delivery was in June of 2019. Throughout his 40 years of practice, Dr. Wilson taught Ob/Gyn at the Hinsdale Family Medicine Residency program. In addition, he taught Ob/Gyn to International Medical Students in Hinsdale between 2008 and 2016.
Lanny has been married to Linnea B. Wilson since 1973. They raised two sons, Luke and Blake, and one daughter, Lauren, until her untimely death in 1994 at a Railroad Crossing in Hinsdale at the age of 14. Shortly thereafter, Dr. Wilson partnered to create the DuPage Railroad Safety Council. He has chaired that organization since its inception; and credits the Council with helping to reduce deaths and injuries at railroad crossings to approximately half the number which had occurred the year Lauren died.
Included among Dr. Wilson’s most memorable awards were the ‘Physician Value’ awards he received from hospital peers for mentoring ‘Compassion’ in 2009 and for ‘Integrity’ in 2016 – two values integral to life in medicine and to life as a whole person beyond medicine. Also, when he received the ‘Friend of Medicus Integra Award’ from the Coalition for Physician Well-Being in 2019, it was one of the happiest days of his life.
