Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 84 Dr. Walter Wyman, Surgeon-General of the United States Public Health and Marine-Hospital Service, a member of numerous scientific and professional organizations and an Honorary Member of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, died in the City of Washington, November 21st, 1911. He was born in St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 17, 1848, his father, Edward Wyman, LL.D., being a widely known educator of that city. Walter Wyman received his academic education at the University of St. Louis and later attended Amherst (Mass.) College, from which he received the degree A.B. in 1870, A.M. in 1889 and LL.D. in 1911. His medical course was taken in St. Louis, where he graduated in 1873 from the Medical Department of Washington University, then popularly known as the St. Louis Medical College. Dr. Wyman entered the Marine-Hospital Service as Assistant Surgeon Oct. 21, 1876, was promoted to Surgeon Oct. 1, 1877, and was made supervising Surgeon-General May 27, 1891. Practically all of the working years of his life were devoted to the development of the public health service and to bringing about a proper recognition of the value of sanitation and preventive medicine. During the 20 years of his administration as the executive head of the Bureau the service was expanded, from its somewhat restricted field of caring for sick and disabled seamen and a general supervision of medical matters in connection with the merchant marine, to the representative public health service of the United States with a wide range of work already established and the possibility of additional achievements limited only by inadequate appropriations and the hampering influences of men who should be, and in many instances claimed to be, favorable to the development of public health work.
