Not Commissioned (Registration)
Qualifications: MD, CM (Edinburgh Univ)
Address: 47 Evan Street
City/Town: Stonehaven
Present work: General Practitioner. I am willing to serve provided that I am satisfied that adequate arrangements can be made to carry on my practice. I am the oldest practitioner here - oldest by years of age I mean - and on coming here eight years ago found the practice by no means what it had been represented to be. I have had a hard struggle to make the practice what it now is, and, having no private income, I cannot afford to risk financial loss in view of my responsibilities as a married man with two children
