Description:Excerpt from The New York Medical Eclectic, Vol. 6: Devoted to Reformed Medicine, General Science and Literature; March, 1879 Our school in the last thirty years has made giant steps in the path of progress, but I fear that its success has turned the thoughts of our men from the study of that subject which alone can make the practice of medicine a science and rid it of all its uncertainties. Pathology in our school has been entirely overshadowed by our materia medics. If this continues our school must accept the term empiric, for medicine administered for diseases of which we know not of, is a lottery in its results which is alike dangerous to the sufferer and most unsatisfactory to the physician. Against my Views comes the therapeutist, who says, I want to cure my patients. I know what I have done, and what I can do. But watch the course of such thinkers. With the cases they meet mostly, simple plans succeed; but once in a while presents itself a case out of the ordinary, then what is the result '9' Hav ing no foundation to guide them they administer this remedy, that remedy, and to some medical journal comes, an anomalous case a case in practice. Etc. Etc. Such is the proving of my views. From my own experience in the great Hospitals, and constant association with the great diagnosticians, I as firmly believe that a man cannot be a true physician without pathology as I do that a man cannot be an artist who is color-blind; and it is about as hard to convince the one as it is the other of the want of success. I appeal more especially to the young men of the school, for it is through them that it will be maintained and car ried on, and when we once allow ourselves to drop into a routine the chances are that our routine becomes part of us, and is ever with us; and I might, apropos, quote Crockett, in First be sure you're right, then go ahead.
