Short Genealogy Info : Henry Olin, M.D., one of the most distinguished oculists and aurists in the country, was born at Concord, Erie Co., N. Y., on August 18, 1835. In the course of time he entered regularly upon the study of medicine, which he pursued at Buffalo, New York, and Philadelphia, thoroughly fitting himself for his profession. Having completed his collegiate medical education, he at once entered into practice, with greater success than usually attends the beginning of a professional career. For three or four years from 1S60. Dr. Olin conducted a drug store in connection with his practice, but finding that the claims of his profession demanded all his attention, he abandoned the drug business and has since confined himself exclusively to his practice, with the exception of attending to his duties as lecturer on the diseases of the eye and ear in Bennett Medical College. He has greatly added to the high character of this college, of which he is also a teacher. For fifteen years Professor Olin has made the treatment of this class of diseases a specialty and has an authority in this branch of medical science throughout the world. In 1870, he made a most important discovery in the physiology of the ear, which revolutionized a long accepted theory. He found, while examining a patient, that there was a congenital absence of the tympanic membrane, and yet normal hearing existed. Martin2001 Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy!
