The papers of Edward G. Waters, M.D. span the years 1919-1981. They are very strong in the area of original works authored by Dr. Waters and contain a nearly complete set of his published medical articles, along with a list of all his published works. The papers also contain a number of patient case studies with statistical data which should be of interest to researchers. Various forms of visual media are included. They are mainly anatomical drawings, pathological specimens, surgical procedures, statistical data, and two 8mm films. One of the films is on the Waters' Technique for Extraperitoneal Cesarean Section. On the teaching staff of Seton Hall College of Medicine and Dentistry, Dr. Waters was named Professor Emeritus of Gynecology and Obstetrics in 1964. When the State of New Jersey acquired SHCMD in 1965, Dr. Waters remained Professor Emeritus at the New Jersey College of Medicine and Dentistry. This occurred again in 1970 when Rutgers Medical School was merged with NJCMD to form the College of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Thus, Dr. Waters was Professor Emeritus of three institutions.
