With at least half of our articles coming from history researchers and professionals, this section is dedicated to the work of medical professionals, specifically those from Lancaster General Hospital. This section is a compilation of work done in multiple journals and publications over a 55 year time period. Such papers include case studies, procedural overviews, local medical advertisements/pamphlets, and more. This is not felt to be a complete list of all articles written in this period from Lancaster General Health staff, appearing in journals. If you are aware of others, please forward them to publications@lancastermedicalheritagemuseum.org.
As medical instruments and medicines were developed, doctors just did not have enough pockets to carry everything, resulting in the development of "The Doctor's Bag".
