You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|Canadian surgeon and educator (1932–2022)))
'''Bernard Langer''' ((post-nominals|country=CAN|OC)) (May 23, 1932 — February 23, 2022) was a Canadian surgeon and educator. In 2015, he was inducted into the [[Canadian Medical Hall of Fame]].<ref name=cmhf>((cite web |url=http://cdnmedhall.org/inductees/dr-bernard-langer-oc |title=Dr. Bernard Langer, OC |work=Canadian Medical Hall of Fame |access-date=2015-12-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150917011941/http://cdnmedhall.org/inductees/dr-bernard-langer-oc |archive-date=2015-09-17 |url-status=dead ))</ref>

==Biography==
Born in [[Toronto]], he received an [[Doctor of Medicine|MD]] (1956) from the [[University of Toronto]], interned at the [[Toronto General Hospital]] (TGH) and completed training as a surgeon at the University of Toronto. Langer subsequently pursued training in [[oncology]] at [[University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center|MD Anderson Hospital]] in [[Houston]] and in liver transplantation at [[Brigham and Women's Hospital|Brigham Hospital]] in [[Boston]].<ref name=cjs/>

In 1963, he was named to the staff of the TGH. Although a general surgeon, Langer developed an expertise in [[liver]], [[pancreas]] and [[biliary tract]] surgeries. He became head of the general surgery division at the hospital in 1972. In that role, he established a recruitment methodology which allowed the development of subspeciality areas within general surgery. In 1985, he performed the first liver transplant in Toronto. As a member of the Provincial Advisory Committee on Surgical Oncology, the Cancer Quality Council of Ontario and the Cancer Surgery Quality Committee, he helped raise the standards for cancer care in Ontario; these improved standards were also used as a model in other parts of Canada.<ref name=cjs/>

In 1982, Langer became R.S. McLaughlin Professor and chair of the surgery department at the University of Toronto. He established a Surgeon Scientist Program, aimed at providing surgeons with research training. The [[Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada]]'s Clinician Investigator Program, established in 1994, was modelled after the Surgeon Scientist Program. Langer also served as president of the [[Canadian Association of General Surgeons]], as president of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, as the first vice president of the [[American Surgical Association]]<ref name=cjs/> and as president of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.<ref name=cmhf/>

In his honour, the University of Toronto has established the Bernard and Ryna Langer Chair in General Surgery, the Department of Surgery Langer Surgeon Scientist Award and the Bernard Langer Annual Lecture in Health Sciences. The [[Canadian Association of General Surgeons]] has a Langer Lecture at its annual meeting. In 2002, Langer was named an Officer in the [[Order of Canada]]<ref name=cjs>((cite journal |pmc=4373986 |title=Dr. Bernard Langer — inductee into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame |journal=Canadian Journal of Surgery |volume=58 |issue=2 |pages=80–82 |date=September 2015 |doi=10.1503/cjs.003315 |pmid=25799243 | last1 = Greig | first1 = PD | last2 = Rotstein | first2 = OD))</ref> and in 2015 was inducted into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame(2).

Langer married Ryna Manson; the couple had four children including Jacob Langer, himself a notable general and paediatric surgeon and the former Chief of General and Thoracic Surgery at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.<ref name=cjs/> Langer died on February 23, 2022, at the age of 89.<ref>((cite web |title=Bernard Langer obituary |url=https://www.legacy.com/ca/obituaries/theglobeandmail/name/bernard-langer-obituary?pid=201461558 |website=Legacy |access-date=26 February 2022))</ref>
