Dr Neil Thompson has produced, by single-minded determination and incredible persistence, an encyclopaedic record of the service of every medico who has practised privately in the Richmond Valley from European settlement to 1986. The reader will be astonished by the depth of research undertaken to produce this history.

The painstaking research of this historian is to be admired all the more because it was undertaken pretty much on his own, by a doctor who soon found himself drawn to the long and tortuous task. This authoritative tome will be a reference point for others and a foundation for future historians to follow the pathway of the doctors from 1986 onwards.

This is a ‘must have’ for all those with an interest in health care development in the Northern Rivers.

Brigadier the Hon Dr Brian Pezzutti CSC RFD

Magnificent work

Comprehensive, scholarly, extremely well researched book. So interesting how some medical practitioners stay for many decades and others only a year or two- what were the reasons, public or private, for early departures - family, financial, climate, other.
Thank you Neil, it’s a great read and I only came across it perchance when googling to find out Father Opie’s Christian name.

This history of the doctors from the Richmond Valley will appeal to long time residents of the area and bring back memories of their family's doctors from the decades past.

It's wrth a read for the history buffs.
