As an OHSU School of Dentistry faculty member, she worked in both the hospital dental clinic and in the Russell Street Clinic, often treating underserved populations. Perhaps most prominent in her career was Dr. Eigner-Barry's work in dental clinics around the world helping to serve communities with little access to healthcare. As both a first-generation college student and only one of seven women in her class, she faced surprisingly little prejudice while in dental school and received great support from her male classmates. She also enjoyed working to treat the mentally disabled and those at the Vietnamese refugee clinic in Portland. Inspired by Albert Schweitzer, Eigner-Barry began her travels in Cameroon, Africa and later traveled to areas such as Nepal and Cambodia. Despite tribal wars and violent political protests, she helped to open new dental clinics and train local residents to perform basic dentistry. 000003279 540__ $$fCC BY-NC 000003279 542__ $$fIn Copyright - Educational Use Permitted 000003279 650__ $$aDentistry$$017565 000003279 650__ $$aHistory of Dentistry$$020254 000003279 650__ $$aSchools, Dental$$025773 000003279 650__ $$aFaculty$$018865 000003279 650__ $$aSchool Management and Organization$$041897 000003279 650__ $$aEducation, Dental$$018219 000003279 650__ $$aVulnerable Populations$$034693 000003279 650__ $$aWomen$$027986 000003279 691__ $$aOregon Health & Science University.
