you may not know them personal
ly. you may know them by repu
tation or through some of your
neiyhbors, they have treated.
The remarkable success of these
talented physicians in the treat
ment of chronic diseases has
aroused much enthusiasm in the
northwest
This is said to be and no doubt
is true, one of the most able
specialists organization of its
kind in this section o. the coun
try, and must be a successful one
from the many good suits the.
are getting.
The United Doctors, licensed
by the state of Colorado for the
treatment of deformities and
nervous and chronic diseases OF
men, women and children. offer
to all who call on them, consul
tation, examination and advice
free.
1t is specially requested that
married ladies come with their
husbands and minors with their
parents.
The name UNITED DOCTORS,
is what it implies, a union OF spe'
cialists, twelve in number that
have gotten together for the treat
ment of chronic and nervous dis
eases Not to be understood that
they treat all diseases that the
human body is heir to. They mean
20 b very careful in selecting and
taking cases as they want good re-
suits, which means good returns
recommending them to others.
They estimate that over eighty
per cent of the patients now com
ing to them, come from recon-
mendations of those they have
treated.
They do not treat any acute
diseases whatever, their time
and attention being devoted to
such diseases as follows:
Diseases of the stomach, in
testines, liver, blood, skin, nerves,
heart, spleen, kidneys or bladder,
rheumatism, sciatica, diabetes,
bedwetting, leg ulcers, weak lungs
and those afflicted with long
standing, deep-seated, chronic
diseases, that have baffled the
skill of the family physicians,
should not fail to call.
According to their system, no
more operations for Appendicitis,
gall stones, tumors, or goiter.
They were among the first in
America to earn the name of the
"Bloodless Surgeons" by doing
away with knife, with blood and
with all pain in the successful
treatment of these dangerous dis
eases.
