Stanley Baum

Stan Baum was many things ... best among them, a good friend of mine. He was a renowned Interventional Radiologist, a great pioneer in that field. He was also a great Dept. Head of Radiology, at Penn Hospital. I first came to know Stan and his family when he came to work at Mass. Gen. Hospital and luckily for my family, came to live next door to us for many years in Newton, MA.

In memory: Dr Baum was the example of a devoted husband. His caring for his wife Jeanne and his devotion to science was amazing. I will miss him greatly

Our deepest condolences to Jeanne and the Baum and Masch families. Stanley´s contributions to the field of radiology are surpassed only by his role as beloved matriarch. May his memory be a blessing.

Dear Jeanne, Rich, and the entire Baum Family: Stan was a great IR pioneer and a wonderful man. You won't ever know how many individuals and careers were inspired by his work and his leadership. Trust me when I say there were many. Count me and my career among them. There was a time when I passed on an opportunity to work alongside Stan as his vice-chair at Penn--perhaps not the smartest thing I've ever done. But memories of him will always hold a special place with me. In sympathy, ...

The Baum Family: We were so sorry to learn about Dr. Baum's passing. He was a great man and it was a pleasure working with him when we were at General Electric Medical. Rest in peace Dr. Baum.
