Popis: Andrew Fenves (Figure ​(Figure11) was born in Budapest, Hungary, on November 29, 1953, and he grew up there. He and his family moved to the USA in 1969 and to Dallas shortly thereafter. After graduating from Hillcrest High School, he went to Stanford University and graduated with a bachelor's degree in mathematics in 1975 after only 3 years in college. He graduated from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School (UT Southwestern) in 1979. His internship and first year of medical residency were at the Jewish Hospital of St. Louis, which is connected to Washington University. The remainder of his medical residency and his nephrology fellowship were at Baylor University Medical Center (BUMC) in Dallas. After completing his fellowship, he was in the private practice of nephrology in North Dallas before becoming full time at BUMC in 1991. Dr. Fenves has participated actively in the internal medicine training program and in the nephrology fellowship program at BUMC. He is also clinical professor of medicine at UT Southwestern. He received the John S. Fordtran Teaching Award in the 1995–1996 academic year and the Faculty Excellence Award the next year. He was elected to “The Best Doctors in America” in 1998. Despite his active private practice and teaching activities, Dr. Fenves has contributed to investigative activities, including the publication of nearly 50 articles, almost entirely in peer-reviewed medical journals. He is married to Saralynn Busch, and they have 2 daughters. Dr. Fenves is a wonderful storyteller, a major contributor to the Baylor environs, and one of our most outstanding physicians.
