Background
July 1938

Jewish doctors lose their accreditation

By means of the „Fourth By-law to the Reich Citizenship Law“ of 25 July 1938 all Jewish doctors in Germany lose their licensure. Over 3000 physicians are affected by this measure. Only a few hundred are allowed to continue working as „treatment providers“ to care for their ill co-religionists.
