'Lady-Physicians', 1865. A woman doctor takes the pulse of a patient who lies back in his chair looking at her. Just at the time that women were fighting to make careers in medicine, Punch illustrates the problems to be faced by a young lady of beauty and breeding in dealing with the wily ways of members of the opposite sex. From Punch, or the London Charivari, December 23, 1865.
