$12.00

In 1873 Dr. Pierce organized a group of “medical gentlemen,” as Holcombe delicately puts it, as the World’s Dispensary. In 1878 he opened a hotel in Buffalo for treatment of chronic diseases, The Invalids’ and Tourists’ Hotel. In 1879 he merged the Consulting Department of the World’s Dispensary with the hotel, and the World’s Dispensary Medical Association was born.
