Note

He practiced most of his career in St. Louis, MO, later in Excelsior Springs, MO.
He practiced medicine during the Great Depression. Because of his strong political views (I’m not sure what they were), he was released from the hospital that employed him and he developed a private practice. He worked for cash or at times barter. He served a number of folks for free when they were unable to come up with either form of payment. A number of those “free” customers were professional athletes (mostly Italian baseball and soccer players I was told) that needed physicals to compete. He became a member of the staff at McCleary Memorial Hospital in Excelsior Spring in 1951 and ended his career working with that hospital.⁶
