The History of the Johnson County Medical Society
The "Original Laws and Constitution, Johnson County Medical Society"
is a bound, green leather ledger book. The cover page is on the
stationary of F. F. Greene, M.D., whose office was located in Room
No. 11, Dow Building, Corner Park and Chestnut Streets, Olathe,
Kansas. This cover sheet is dated "10-30-190_"; the edge has warn
away and the last number is not there.
Although minutes from before 1959 were not kept, parts of the
Society's history has been brought out by Dr. George Mazer, a member
of the Society since 1939.
Since 1959, members have seen many changes in the way that the
Society operates. Some of these changes included, the addition of
telephones (Sept. 1959), the construction of a medical library
(1961), the opening of the Shawnee Mission Hospital (1962), and the
first publication of the newsletter, Proceedings, (1963).
