I NEED A DOCTOR

Imhotep of Ancient Egypt,was the real Father of Medicine. He lived from 2300 B.C. Greece and Rome had their knowledge of medicine from him. In Rome he was worshipped as the Prince of Peace in the form of a black man. His Ethiopian portraits show him a Negro. Imhotep was also Prime Minister to King Zoser as well as the foremost architect of his time. The saying,"Eat,drink,and be merry for tomorrow was die," has been traced to him. Hippocrates, the so-called "Father of Medicine" lived 2,000 years after Imhotep. Aben Ali,an African Negro,was private physician to Charles Vll, King of France (1403-1465). When the king fell dangerously ill at Toulouse, Aben Ali was sent for and he cured him. Thereafter the king made him a member of his suite. Dr. C. Tavares,an African Negro, was the private physician to King Carlos l of Portugal until the latter's death in 1908. Dr. Daniel Williams, Chicago surgeon who dies in 1931,was the first to perform a successful operation on the human heart.
