A sKILLFUL SURGEON.

OF all Kansas City's most prominent
men there are none that have wider
acquaintance than has DR.. G. M. Coe.
His profession tor the last several
years has brought him in contact with
thousands of patients from all parts of
the country. DIR. Goes practice is diff
ferent from the ordinary Specialist, as
he conducts u thoroughly equipped
Sanitarium for the treatment of all
forms of diseases. The doctor has no
panaceas or special magnetic powers
whereby he makes the lame walk, the
deaf hear, or the blind see, but is a
graduate of one of the best Medical
Schools in the country, and his expert
ence while House Surgeon of Cook
County Hospital in Chicago, gave him
the idea that most diseases can be bet
ter treated in Sanitarium where the
surgeon has the advantage of corps
of assistants, with trained nurses, and
the advantage of home for his pa
tients. DIR. Coe established his Sani-
tarium here many years ago and
during those years has performed
some of the most successful sur
gical operations known to sci
ence. Among others may be men,
toned the successful operation of
removing forty-eight pound tumor
from the abdominal cavity of Mrs.
L. b. Belts of Kiowa, Kansas. This
drawn off and the Cyst left to fill up
again, but was a solid tumor weighing
forty-eight pounds. and perhaps the
largest of the kind ever successfully
removed by a surgeon. And very
serious and difficult operation was
that performed on cancerous growth
of the womb in the case of Mrs. Paul
Handel of Pawnee City, Neb. Mrs
Handel had suffered for years and was
given up to die, and was brought to
the Sanitarium in q helpless and crit
ical condition. The cancer was of
such long standing that not only was
the womb involved but both ovaries
as well. DR.. Coe performed an oper-
alton, removing the cancerous womb
and both ovares Now Mrs. Han
del is q strong, healthy woman
and will be glad to answer
any letters you may write pertaining
to her case. We only mention these
critical cases to show what can be
done by man that has the knowledge,
experience, and a place where the pa
tient has the advantage of good nurs-
ing, proper diet, and the best possible
medical attention. Experience means
much to the physician and surgeon.
Little should be expected from the
physician who leaves college with high
honors, and has to wait so long for his
first patient that he has forgotten all
he ever knew No surgeon ever be-
came proficient watching others per-
form operations, or reading about
them. He must have experience. DIR.
Goes two years experience while in
Cook County hospital brought him in
contact with a greater variety and
number of patients than the ordinary
practitioner reads about in a life time,
and his opportunities have never once
diminished, as there is never a day
that he does not do some kind of an
operation at the Sanitarium, and often
several in one day.
If you are interested in the welfare
of your health, or the health of your
family or friends, and are thinking of
going abroad for treatment, write to
DIR. c. NJ. Coe, Kansas City. Mo-, and
get particulars concerning his Santa
rum, together with an opinion of
your case, which will be cheerfully
given.
