Dr. Frank A. Stubblefield came to El Paso a little over six years ago
and from the first had an extensive practice, which he has increased each
year until at present he probably has as large a country practice as any
physician in Central Illinois. He was born at Salem, this state, in 1855.
In 1882 he graduated from the Missouri Medical college. His experience
was largely strengthened
through the fact that for eighteen months he assisted and was daily
attendant at one of the St. Louis hospitals. He is surgeon for the Illinois
Central and T. P. & W. railroads and is secretary of the Woodford County
Medical society. He is a close reader and a man of marked ability. The
cut of his residence and office is shown elsewhere. He owns three teams,
all handsome black thoroughbreds and lately added to his conveniences and
necessities a physician's cab, a closed vehicle made especially for doctors
who have an extensive country practice and lots of driving.
Dr. Stubblefield has made a specialty of surgery for some years past
and many difficult operations have been performed here, his patients finding
it much more convenient to submit to operations at home than go to the
larger cities.
