Abstract:

The article concerns the life and work of Anna Tomaszewicz-Dobrska, the first woman practising medicine in the Kingdom of Poland. Her character, although indisputably important for the history of medicine and the history of emancipation, is little known. The only biography of Tomaszewicz-Dobrska, written by Zbigniew Filar, was published in 1959. In addition to presenting facts from her life, the article raises issues related to the pioneers of medical studies from today’s Poland, the situation of female students at foreign universities in the 19th century, as well as the state of medical knowledge in the field of reproductive health at that time.
