In September 1860 Dr Clark (MA, MRCS, surgeon of England) placed an advertisement under the heading “Treatment Homœopathic”. He stated that he was the “only one of this city and of that mode of treatment who is regularly medically educated, and legally qualified.” (Drs Hickson and Berigny had practices in Melbourne, but were not accepted as being legally qualified.) The address given was Alph Cottage, High Street, St Kilda.

 

The 1861 edition of the Sands Directory includes an entry for C. Clark, Surgeon, at 69 High Street St Kilda (between Alma Street East and Somerset Street. He was not in the Directory Listings for 1860 or 1862. It appears that he may have arrived in Melbourne during 1860, but left some time during 1861 or 1862.
