HC Deb 30 March 1917 vol 92 c776W
Mr. BUXTON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether in cases where a soldier, of whatever rank, needing medical treatment, desires to be treated by a properly qualified osteopath who is a member of the British Osteopathic Association, he will be given permission to be so treated without risk to his position, pay, or pension?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Soldiers in hospital are treated by the medical and surgical staffs appointed for the purpose, and this treatment is supervised by the consulting surgeons. No others are allowed to treat patients.
