Love Boat: Confessions of a ship's surgeon

It is so great to see the number of residents in our community coming out to support one of their own. On Thursday, April 7th, retired Dr. Bernard Oseroff presented a power point about his time working on his very own Love Boat! Dr. Oseroff worked on the SS America where Doctors are referred to as "Assistant Surgeons". He did make the point that he never performed surgery, but rather was the family medicine doctor for crew and up to 600 passengers at a time. In order to work on this steamship, he also had to be certified as an "able bodied seaman" by the U.S. Coast Guard.

The SS America was a very luxurious ship, the length of two football fields! During his time on the ship, he mentioned meeting the most beautiful woman he had ever seen before! This lovely lady would become his wife of 54 years. Dr. Oseroff or "Bern" as residents call him, reminisced about days gone by, shared artwork of the ship, as well as photographs of his time on this steamship.
