Medical SPECIALITY! SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nuiuve — site compels you to honour the acceptance. mHIRTY years since, when Bs. Smith first X commenced practice here, it was thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this, like most other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be " infra dig " to that profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallemand and Eicord, in France, and Acton, in England, were for years cried down by their medical brethren. Wow and for many past years they have.been looked up to, and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the partiouiar branch of the profession which these gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. Years Bince, it was the same with Dr. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemand and Eicord) as a specialist. In all eases of. diaeaees and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, aud 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 caeeß how necee* Bary it is to have the Specialist who has devoted his whole lifetime to the studying a»-d practising in this one branch of hie pro* fesßion? Eence, now, after so many years, all minutJEO are familiar to him, and symp* toms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may rot Btrike the General Practitioner at once, now from constant practice and obserra* tion made Dr. It. L. Smith master of the subject. '' The medical profession—that is, the more liberal-minded of them—have likewise recog* nised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch—oculists, aurista, aypbilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has >;6w some member of ihe profession who devotes his time to that, and to none other.' For instance, the "chest doctor" would on no account attend an aceouc' einent, and the 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. • Db'L.-L. Smith aekß thoße who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barren* ncsa, "and Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions are shattered, to consult him as an expert —thirty (30) years 'practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in liidia, Ghinaj Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought to be sufficient to.cause every man or woman requiring such skill as is alluded, to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. , Ab a Syphilographer no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affedtions—• Buch as Nervous disease —no one in the pro* feseion has enjoyed so much public confidence.
