A Glimpse Of The Past Through The Surgeon Collection - Surgeons are thought of with special respect. It may be the outright need of professional medical support, but it’s more than that. A bond forms between patient and surgeon based on caring. It is so apparent, we call it one of the “caring” professions. Much has been said of the "hands of a surgeon," with terms including steady, firm, sure, confident, delicate, implying a certain measure of talent and gift that is a prerequisite for the task. The sheer dedication and skill necessary to become a surgeon develops an appreciation by the receiver of the care involved. Surgeons work exceptionally hard to be worthy of the trust and faith involved by patients when they commit to surgery. Many surgeons have attained a measure of fame through their efforts in their particular fields and almost universally promote continued health based on a physically fit life-style including an appropriate diet and exercise program.

William & Charles Mayo joined their father at St. Mary’s Hospital in Rochester, MN, and while building a cooperative group clinic made up of many specialties, including cardiology, founded the Mayo Clinic in 1905, and later the Graduate School of Medicine in 1915. Pharmacy had roots in a movement to standardize the strength and purity of medicines (pharmacopoeia). The first such published lists were the Nuovo Receptario of Florence (1498) and the Dispensatorium of Colerius Cordis of Nuremberg (1546).
