Founder of London’s Fowler Kennedy Sports Medicine Clinic at Western University, Mr. Fowler treated hockey players Steve Yzerman and Eric Lindros, skiing legends Todd Brooker and Laurie Graham, and countless others
But he later helped many athletes who were.
“Certainly in Ontario, if not in Canada and then internationally, I think his contribution [to sports medicine] is just unparalleled,” said Sarah Padfield, the Fowler Kennedy clinic’s executive director. Dr. Kennedy, who ran a fledgling Western clinic dedicated to the emerging field of sports medicine, selected him as the first resident in the university’s new orthopedic surgery program. After his surgical residency at Duke University, Dr. Fowler returned to Western, served as a general orthopedic surgeon and worked part-time in the clinic with Dr. Kennedy, initially treating varsity athletes and intramural competitors.
“The second time was sort of a cleanup of my knee cartilage in the fall pre-season,” Ms. Graham said. “I had a pretty successful season that year and, in interviews, I would attribute it to the work he had done. What was funny was, I was misnaming it as having had an orthoscope, and he gently corrected me [and advised] to call it by the right name – arthroscopic surgery. [That] shows he was a detail guy.
Paul Beeston, who became a two-time Jays president, overseeing their World Series-winning clubs in 1992 and 1993, joined the club in 1976 with help from Dr. Fowler. Don McDougall, president of Labatt Breweries, the team’s first owner, was a Fowler family neighbour and hired Mr. Beeston.
