Watson Attempts to Get Medical Training
Life, Career
1870
1878
Watson tried for eight years to get admittance to medical school. When her father's alma mater refused her, she focused on local institutions, since they were living in London by then. The events of the Surgeons' Hall riot also influenced her switch regarding institutions. (The change is how she missed out on being one of the early members of the Edinburgh Seven). Eventually, she gave up attempting to achieve the training and licensing in the traditional manner.
Ladies of Baker Street belongs to Diana L. Marsh.
