Edwin Hurry Fenwick

Edwin Hurry Fenwick (1856–1944), British urologist, early adopter of cystoscopic and x-ray technologies. It was largely through the efforts of Fenwick that urology was shaped into a specialty in Great Britain, recognized by the Royal Society of Medicine.[1]

He is depicted by David Troughton in the BBC serial Casualty 1909, during his tenure at the London Hospital.

His name is engraved on the St Peter's Medal.[2]
