Henry Holland

  Noted events in his life were:

• source. Mary-Ann Cook who writes:
Henry Holland spent the four years 1799-1803 at Newcastle-on-Tyne, under the tuition of the Rev W Turner; a fifth year he spent at Bristol, under the Rev John Prior Estlin. In 1804 he became articled clerk to a Liverpool merchant, with liberty to study at Glasgow University for two sessions. At the end of the second session he obtained a release from business, and entered upon medical study. In his eighteenth year he drew up an official statistical report on the agriculture of Cheshire. He afterwards proceeded to Edinburgh University, but besides pursuing his medical studies there he devoted two winters to studying at Guy`s and St Thomas`s Hospitals in London.
In 1810 he visited Iceland with Sir George S Mackenzie, and Dr Richard Bright.
He took the degree of MD at Edinburgh in 1811, and spent the following year and a half in European travel. In the summer of 1814 he returned to the continent as medical attendant on the Princess of Wales. In his evidence at the parliamentary inquiry held in 1820 with a view to divorcing her from George IV, Holland testified that the princess`s conduct with Bergami was, so far as he had seen, free from impropriety. Returning to London, he became a licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians in 1816. He soon entered upon fashionable practice in Mount Street.
He then removed to Brook Street, Grosvenor Square, where he remained during the rest of his life. In 1816 he was admitted a fellow of the Royal Society, and in 1828 a fellow of the College of Physicians. He became one of the best known men in London society, the friend and adviser of almost every man of note. In 1837 he was appointed physician extraordinary to Queen Victoria, in 1840 physician in ordinary to the prince consort, and he declined a baronetcy offered by Lord Melbourne in 1841. He was made physician in ordinary to the queen in 1852, and accepted a baronetcy in 1853.
In his later years he retired from practice, but continued to make long tours. His last excursion was to Russia; on his way back he attended the trial of Marshal Bazaine at Versailles on 24 Oct 1873, returned to London the next day, and died in bed on 27 Oct, the eighty-fifth anniversary of his birth. As a physician, Holland`s work was more fashionable than scientific. The frequent half-hour of genial conversation was one of his favourite therapeutic agents. He took no part in the medical societies, and although twice a vice-president of the College of Physicians, declined to be nominated for the presidency.
