To Service Humanity Is to Service God

The greatest of blessings come to those who listen to their calling. Dr. Neville K. Conolly’s beautifully crafted memoir, “Called to be a Surgeon, Not for Bread Alone” inculcates the significance of service to others for the greater good, despite the threats that prowl on life. The Second World War, which defiled life itself, heightened Neville’s determination to aid those who were touched by illness or injury.

Despite the blind dangers that marked anyone as a victim, he persevered to journey where danger reigned supreme. The perilous path of becoming and being a surgeon in the cradle of the great war did not discourage the general and pediatric surgeon Neville to save lives. The marvelous journey of the author will inspire aspiring physicians and surgeons, allowing them to value the profession’s true purpose and not be tempted to corrupt the practices of medicine by perceiving the profession as a business. Other aspects and interests of Neville’s life allowed him to develop into a well-rounded young surgeon. His education and experiences produced a lifetime of happiness and contentment.  Neville adhered to his original ideals throughout and still believes the practice of medicine to be a “calling”.

About the Author

Neville went to college at the start of World War II at Kings College, Cambridge. He shared rooms with a Choral Scholar who introduced him to the Organ and Choral Scholars at Kings. Neville became very interested in the music at Kings and spent a lot of time with the Organ Scholars, Boris Ord, Harold Darke and David Willcocks.  David went on to achieve a very distinguished musical career and became Sir David Willcocks, (the Queen’s Musician). Boris Ord and Harold Darke also achieved very distinguished musical careers. Neville attended the services at Kings College Chapel and developed a love for the service and the music of the organ scholars. When Neville immigrated to the USA he left the Plymouth Brethren and joined the Episcopal Church. Neville’s love of music continued in the US and he became good friends with Normal Scribner, who was the Organ Scholar and Music Director at St. Albans Episcopal Church in Washington DC, where Neville and his family attended. Norman Scribner started the Washington Choral Arts Society, while he was Music Director at St. Alban’s, and became world-renowned as Conductor and Organist.  Norman continued as Music Director at St. Albans and was allowed to use the Church facilities for the Choral Arts singers to practice. The Senior Choir at St. Albans was made up mostly of the Choral Arts singers with Norman playing the organ. Neville later found out that Norman Scribner and Sir David Willcocks shared a mutual admiration for one another.  Neville’s friendship with Norman Scribner continued and he was able to enjoy the music he loved for the rest of his life.
