Philippa Massey Talk: Medical Practitioners in Stamford

Thurs 24 Sep, Stamford Theatre arts centre promoted events, talks

Philippa Massey Talk - Medical Practitioners in Stamford:

Doctors, Dentists, Vets and Chemists.

Philippa investigates who provided health care in Stamford. For about 350 years the 6 houses of religion were the focus for hospitals, medicines and nursing care, but the dissolution of the monasteries radically altered this provision. From the 18th century onwards, named medical practitioners are recorded in the town.

She looks at the opening of the Infirmary, great strides in medicine and surgery, chemists’ shops, and the strong surgeries and practices in Stamford after the National Health Service. What does health care in Stamford look like in the 21st century?
