Physicians of Polish origin in the Perm Province in the last third of the XIX century
In the last third of the XIX century, there was the largest number of physicians of Polish origin in the Perm province. Among them, there were both specialists exiled after the uprising of 1863 and those who had come to work in the region on their own in conditions of the acute shortage of qualified physicians. The author has identified at least thirty practitioners. They were employed by the bodies of State and local government, at the enterprises of different patterns of ownership, and were engaged in private practice and entrepreneurship. Within the framework of the latter, one should emphasize their role in the development of two therapeutic and recreational institutions at the local mineral springs.

Their contribution to the medical sphere development is the most significant in Yekaterinburg, Kamyshlov, Krasnoufimsk and Perm districts.
