A Treatise On Gonorrhoea And Syphilis Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from A Treatise on Gonorrhoea and Syphilis A few years since, the author of the following pages prepared an Essay on "The Constitutional Treatment of Syphilis," which was honored by the award of a premium from the Boylston Prize Committee of Harvard University. That Essay constitutes a large portion of the present volume; and, although it has been modified to a degree that deprives it of its original identity, it is believed that its intrinsic merits have been materially enhanced. In the early part of my professional career, I had charge, for several years, of the hospital department of a large Charitable Institution, in which venereal patients, and those affected with blennorrhagic diseases daily presented themselves; and I have now devoted more than thirty years to the therapeutics of syphilis and kindred disorders, as they may properly enough be termed. From time to time I have tested a great variety of remedies, and have pursued, by way of experiment, almost every line of treatment that has been brought to notice with any claims to favorable regard. But I have found no royal plan of accomplishing a speedy or certain removal of the maladies under consideration.
