Alastair MacLennan (obstetrician)
MacLennan was born in Glasgow, Scotland, on 28 March 1945. In an interview, he said that he wanted to be a doctor since he was four years old. At age 16, he began studying at the University of Glasgow Medical School, mentored by Ian Donald, who pioneered obstetric ultrasound. He graduated in 1968 with a MB ChB, choosing to specialise in obstetrics and gynaecology because it incorporates being both a physician and a surgeon, with a variety of sub-specialities and research opportunities.
