Memorials to General Practitioners

 

There are many memorials to doctors across the United Kingdom, some to well known pioneers, but others whose contribution to their patients, their communities and to medicine may have been forgotten or not known outside the locality. If you know of any memorial not included here we would be very pleased to hear about it contact Heritage. You can also follow the blog of Dr Carole Reeves (of the Wellcome Centre for the History of Medicine) Doctors Who Made a Difference.
