HERMAN SCHLEGEL, MD.,* specialist in the diseases of the eye, ear, nose and throat, with offices in the McCrossen Building, Wausau, has been in practice in this city for about three years and has been very successful in his particular line. He was born March 13, 1870, in Switzerland.  

Dr. Schlegel was educated in his native canton and remained in Switzerland until 1891, when he came to the United States and continued his medical studies, graduating in the class of 1906 from the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery. For eighteen months he was house physician and surgeon for the Illinois Charity Eye and Ear Infirmary at Chicago and for several years practiced in that city before coming to Wausau in August, 1910. Dr. Schlegel is a member of the Marathon County Medical Society, the Wisconsin State Medical Society and the American Medical Association. He has traveled extensively both in Europe and in the United States and spent fourteen months in Mexico City, partly for pleasure and partly for investigation and study.
