Occupation

Recorded occupation: Chirurgien de l'Amiraute

In France, from the 13th century until the year 1743, surgeons and barbers were united under the same guild. During this time, surgery was rarely performed by physicians, who considered themselves to be above surgery... barber-surgeons were called upon for numerous tasks ranging from cutting hair to amputating limbs to bloodletting with leeches.
