JOSEPH E. ARTIGUES, M.D.
Joseph
E. Artigues, M.D., whose office is at 651 Broadway street, San Francisco, was
born in this city in 1863, the son of Louis Artigues, who was one of the early
settlers of San Francisco, where he was for many years a merchant and
manufacturer. Joseph received his
education in Toulouse, France, where he attended the public schools, and later
the Lycee, where he graduated in 1880.
He returned to California in 1881, where he devoted some time to
learning the English language, and also took a course at Heald’s Business
College, and was also engaged for two years in business pursuits. In 1885 he commenced the study of medicine
at Cooper Medical College, graduating at that institution in 1887, after a full
three-years course, and receiving his degree as Doctor of Medicine. Dr. Artigues was then appointed house
physician to the French Hospital, where he remained for two years, and has
since that time been engaged in private practice.
