Medical. SPECIALTY! SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nature— she compels you tp honor the acceptance. mHIRTY YEAKS since, when Dr SMITH' B I first commenced practice here, it wfrs'i- v £ : thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional . t man, but this, like most other innovations ia ._. scientific and lay matters, was found rather ~ to aid than to be " infra dig " to that profes sion, wherein the specialty was practised. Lallemand and Eicord, in France, and Acton, in England, were for years cried down by their medical brethren.' Now and for many past years they have been looked up to, and* quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen specially devoted themselves^to. It was the same O with Erasmus Wilson, the "Skin Doctor," "• recently knighted by Her Majesty. Years since, it was the same with Dr L. L . Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemand and Eicord) as a specialist. In. all cases of diseases and habits which pr©-. .,, duce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, and make -- human beings invirile, or which unfit them to carry on the purposes of their being, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forms of ' Affections. In all of these eases how necessary it is to have the Specialist who has devoted his whole lifetime to the studying and practising in this one branch of his profession 1 Hence, now, after so many years, all minutiae are familiar to him, and symptoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may not strike the General Practitioner at once, now from constant practice and obsar- ■> vation make Dr L. L. Smith master of the subject The medical profession — that is, the more liberal-minded of. them — have likewise recognised this fact, and Specialists now in - every branch — oculists, aurists, syphillie mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has now some member of the profession who devotes ' his time to that, and to none other. For instance, the " chest-doctor " would on no. account attend ah accouchment, and the% j» oculist would not think of setting a broken * leg; but each would advise his patient to go, to that doctor who is most famed for treating the disease requiring special skill. Dr L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barren* ness, and Sterility, whose frames and whost ' constitutions are shattered, tp consult him as an expert — thirty (30) years practice in thia colony, with a practice extending throughput not only the ; colonies but in- India, .China, y, Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought |; •t o be; jßnfficient:ip...gauser,eyjßry,man.oE-Wjqm^t^^ requiring such skill as is alluded to above, fc T consult him. either personally or by letter. ' As a Syphilographer no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other, allied affections —such as Nervous diseases — no one in the profession has enjoyed so much public confidence.
