| Abstract |
The Scottish-born physician and surgeon James Douglas (1800-1886) set up practice in Quebec City in 1826 where he quickly acquired a large clientele. In 1837 he was given charge of the city's 300-bed Marine and Emigrant Hospital, and in 1845 Douglas established the Beaufort Asylum for the province's mentally ill, the first of its kind in Quebec.
