THE FIRST HOMOEOPATHIC HOSPITAL AND CLINIC



Whether he was punished or not, our historians do not say, but as soon as he was free, he set about writing against Homoeopathy, making the not of his observations which be consistently twisted to further his purpose. Though not directly responsible for the demise of the hospital, his action brought it still further into disrepute. Hartmann for the second time became Director and treatment under his regime was anything but homoeopathic. He, too, was forced to resign when attacked, chiefly by members of the Central Association. He was succeeded by Dr.Noack who unjustly discharged the faithful Seidel.

On October 4th, 1842, the building was sold to a merchant who agreed to lease a large room on the first floor to Hartmann as a dispensary., Thus did the first Homoeopathic hospital pass into oblivion.
