Medical Specialists In England.
What makes a doctor a specialist?
Can any physician or surgeon with
money benind him take a bouse In
Harley street or neighborhood and
practice as a specialist? He can do
so, but It by no means follows that
he will be recognized as a specialist
by the profession.
To win the professional status of
specialist a man must hold or have
held a professorship at a medical
school o r an apjiointment at a hospi­
tal In connection with the disease or
group o f diseases in which he professes
to specialize.
.
Further, he must conform to certain
rules o f professional conduct
He
must not take a less fee than 1
guinea—2 guineas Is the rule In Lon­
don, and some charge 3 or even
more—for a consultation, save In ex­
traordinary circumstances.
He must
not see a new patient except on the
introduction o f the patient’s own medl.
cal man. I f called to a case the pa­
tient’s medical man must be present
or the specialist will decline to see the
sufferer.—London Tatler.
