Cullen

The Consultation Letters of Dr William Cullen (1710-1790) at the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh

 

[ID:265] From: Dr William Cullen (Professor Cullen) / To: [ADDRESSEE UNKNOWN] / Regarding: Mr Thibou (Patient) / February? 1782? / (Outgoing)

Reply to Dr Robertson(?) with directions for Mr Thibou, a 'growing young man', whose ailments Cullen describes as 'purely cattarghal'. The letter seems incomplete, as it states 'for the rest see the next pages'. It's possible the 'next pages' are Doc Doc [ID:266] which seems to discuss the same case, but also seems to have been written (and possibly sent?) at a later point as Cullen uses it to reflect on the advice he has given here.
