“Dr. Albert” Visited Sandusky Many Times

A physician known as “Dr. Albert” visited Sandusky over one hundred times. On May 6, 1890, the advertisement above appeared in the Sandusky Register. Dr. Albert was scheduled  to see patients at the Sloane House hotel from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday, May 7.

      

In 1885, I.F. Mack gave a testimonial about Dr. Albert. Mr. Mack stated that in his year and a half of continuous advertising, Dr. Albert had aggregated hundreds of dollars in advertising bills, and he was prompt and reliable, and was “a gentleman in all our relations with him.” I.F. Mack said he had never heard anything but words of commendation about Dr. Albert, from his large practice of patients in the Sandusky area.  Some of the conditions treated by Dr. Albert were: nervous diseases, chronic complaints, epilepsy, and chronic diseases of the skin and blood. Dr. Albert’s advertisement indicated that “A consultation will cost you nothing.”  Some patients were required to visit the doctor’s institute in Cleveland for in-house treatment.
