INDIVIDUAL PRACTITIONER
-
Sutton, Thomas (Mr)
Surgeon, inoculator
(1735 - 1819)
Sutton was born in Kenton, Suffolk. He trained under his father, who was a surgeon, apothecary and inoculator. He then became an assistant to an Essex doctor before setting up his own practice. Sutton disagreed with the long preparatory period and subsequent confinement which was recommended by inoculators to their patients. He established a simplified, although still complex, procedure and set up inoculation houses across England to carry out the procedure. Sutton carried out mass inoculations of entire towns and districts. His brothers and his son, Daniel, followed him into the business, and they began to be referred to collectively as the ‘Sutton inoculators’.
