Dale Dubin

American plastic surgeon and author

Dale Dubin (born 1940), is a former American plastic surgeon and author of several cardiology textbooks, though never practicing or being trained as a cardiologist.

Dubin practiced medicine in Tampa, Florida,^[1] and gained fame within the medical community with the 1972 publication of Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, a best-selling textbook suited for medical students and junior residents.^[2] In it, Dubin adopts a simplistic fill-in-the-blank style to teach the basics of reading electrocardiograms.^[3] In the fiftieth printing of the book, he hid within the copyright notice an offer to give his prized 1965 Ford Thunderbird to anyone who actually read the message and responded. Out of 60,000 copies in that printing, only 5 readers noticed and responded, and Dubin's own daughter delivered the car to the winner (selected by a random drawing).^[1] Dubin also wrote Adventure in the Heartland: Exploring the Heart's Ionic-Molecular Microcosm^[4] and Understanding Cardio-pulmonary Resu

Why am I writing about Dr. Dubin again? Well, two reasons: he seems to be the reason a majority of you end up at this blog, and frankly, I became curious as to what the rest of his story was. Where did he go to med school? What was his practice like? Why did he write a book on EKGs when he was a plastic surgeon?

U.S. District Judge William J. Castagna told Dubin at a sentencing hearing Friday he could not see how a ''person of your talent, ability,

After prison, a floral group
One of Tampa Bay's most notorious doctors has built a new life around the fragile petals of a flower.
Dale B. Dubin, who was released from prison in December 1989 after serving nearly three years on child pornography and drug charges, now lives in Fort Myers and has become an authority on the hibiscus.
Two of his seedlings _ new varieties that Dubin created _ reportedly won the best in their class at a recent show in Venice, Fla. Dubin won in both the single and double bloom categories, according to Ruth Watson, newsletter editor of the Fort Myers chapter of the American Hibiscus Society.
"It's kind of unusual to win both," she said.
Dubin, who named his single bloom "Free Spirit" and the double bloom "High Priority," serves as membership chairman for the club, Watson said. The chapter has about 100 members, she said.
Now 53, Dubin won acclaim for a textbook on electrocardiography and built a multimillion-dollar plastic surgery practice in Tampa in the 1970s and early '80s. But in August 1986, he was arrested on charges of possessing illega
