Confidante of Veterans,
Dr. William Baillie Dies
The confidante of thousands of men and women, Dr. William Baillie, 66, former chief psychiatrist of Sunnybrook Hospital, died suddenly yesterday. He suffered a heart attack while visiting Sunnybrook and collapsed in a car while being driven to his home by a doctor. For many years he had given unstinted medical service despite a handicap. In 1929 his doctor friends gave him three weeks to live because of his bad heart.
Dr. Baillie retired last July after 30 years of service to veterans of two world wars. Since his retirement it has been his habit to spend one day a week at Sunnybrook Hospital. It is estimated that 40,000 men and women told their troubles to Dr. Baillie. The Norwegian Government decorated him during the Second World War for his service to Norwegian airmen training in Toronto.
Born in Toronto, Dr. Baillie graduated from the University of Toronto and interned in Toronto Western Hospital. For a time he practiced with the Grand Trunk Pacific along the Lake Superior division. He either walked from one camp to another or pumped a had car. Frequently his only assistant at an operation was the camp cook, serving as anesthetist. Later he was attached to the outpatient staff at Western Hospital. At the beginning of the First World War, he went overseas as a combat officer with the 35th Battalion. Invalided out because of a heart ailment, he returned to Canada.
Dr. Baillie established Canada's first neurological clinic in the old College Hospital on the site of the present Eaton's College St. store. From December, 1918, to July, 1950, he served as psychiatrist for veterans who had cracked up as a result of war services, at Christie St. Hospital and Sunnybrook Hospital. In five years of the Second World War he had under his direction 12,000 patients.
Not only did Dr. Baillie pioneer in psychiatry, but he was the first to introduce the use of malaria to cure syphilis in Canada. Under his direction the first pneumo-X-ray examination of the lower spine to be made in Canada was carried out. He was a member of a number of medical organizations and societies and St. Michael and All Angels Anglican Church.
He leaves his wife, the former Maude Cooke, of 320 Rushton Rd. and four sisters, Mrs. J. Penfound, Mrs. Stan Meeking, Mrs. N. A. McDougall and Mrs. Allen Carter.
