INDIVIDUAL PRACTITIONER
-
Oetinger, Ferdinand Christoph (Dr)
Physician
(1719 - 1772)
Born in Tübingen (Germany), Oetinger was a court physician in the Duchy of Württemberg. He was also active as a professor of medicine at the University of Tübingen and 1768-1769 acted as rector there. He published an inaugural dissertation 'de belladonna, tanquam specifico in cancro, imprimis occulto', which focussed on the use of belladonna in cancer treatment. He was a strong influence for physicians who believed in the theory of animal magnetism (or mesmerism), that stipulated the existence of an invisible natural force in all living beings.
