Stanley Esmond Ellison was a General practitioner and former director of occupational medicine Harlesden (b London 1924; died of myocardial infarction on 5 October 1997).[1]
According to an Obituary in the BMJ:
He began reading medicine at Melbourne, while evacuated to Australia during the war, and after qualification built up a flourishing practice in north west London. He then switched to industrial medicine, being responsible for a large workforce on an industrial estate. With firmly held moral values he found that by the end of the 1960s the side effects of a decade of personal liberation were showing up in doctors' surgeries. He campaigned for the importance of family life and was a founder member of the Responsible Society, later supporting Family and Youth Concern. After retirement he worked on the Mental Health Act's appeal boards. He enjoyed gardening and bridge and was a keen Francophile. He leaves a wife, Brenda, and two daughters.[1]
