Early life and education

edit

Gooch was born in Bar Harbor, Hancock County, Maine, one of four children.

He served as a Lieutenant in the U.S. Navy in 1945, then he received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Maine, in Orono, Maine in 1951.

He earned his medical degree in 1955 from the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York.[6] He received his residency and fellowship training at George Washington University in Washington D.C. He later taught and conducted research as an assistant professor of cardiology.[7] Ultimately, he practiced Cardiology, conducted research and taught as he expanded the Fellowship Program at the Deborah Heart and Lung Center.

Publications

edit

Clues to Diagnosis in Congenital Heart Disease was published in 1969 by F.A Davis.[8][9] The book's purpose was to "demonstrate the application of useful information in the diagnosis of congenital heart disease by illustrating various clues (or non-clues) to the diagnosis."[10] Cases were "superbly demonstrated" with "striking display of graphic data." It (is) "a useful way of teaching of Congenital Heart Disease" and "present(ed) a challenge in diagnosis to the reader".[11]

His research focused on cardiac mitral and tricuspid valve disease. His work was widely cited by other researchers.[12][5] Specifically, he outlined the left ventricular abnormalities that were associated with mitral Valve Disease[13][14] and its associated heart rhythm abnormalities.[15][16] His research on tricuspid valve disease was highly influential.[5][17]
