F. Bazan, M. D., whose office is at No. 415 Sutter street, San Francisco, has been a resident of California since 1873, and has been engaged in the practice of medicine since that time.  He was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1840, the son of Dr. Manuel Bazan, who was a well-known physician of that place, where he died in 1883.  Our subject received his early education in New York, and later went to France, where he attended the Lycee, and afterward graduated as Bachelor of Science and Arts at the University of Paris.  He then commenced the study of medicine at the same university, graduating in 1873, and receiving his degree as Doctor of Medicine.  He at once returned to the United States, locating in San Francisco, where he has practiced medicine continuously since that time.  For eleven years Dr. Bazan held the position of Chief Surgeon of the French Hospital of San Francisco, which position he resigned on his visiting Europe in 1888, spending two years in France and other parts of Europe.  He has lately returned, and in 1890 resumed his private practice.

 

The Doctor is a member of the State Medical Society of California, and of the County Medical Society of San Francisco.  In addition to his private practice he has connected with his residence a bathing establishment, where, on a scientific basis, patients and others can have Russian, Turkish, medicated and electric baths.
