Receiving a second New York State Regents Scholarship for Medical School, Irwin attended New York University (NYU) and graduated from the NYU School of Medicine in 1955. Dr. Weisbrot served as Assistant Chief of Laboratory at the Bronx VA Hospital before joining Norwalk Hospital in 1967 as an Attending Pathologist until his retirement in 1993.
