who is the father of occupational medicine in the United States

I can't find anything on the web. Here is my suggestion: At the school, check the encyclopedia under Public Medicine, and Occupational Health. If that fails, call the local Public Health Service and ask to speak to a nurse, and ask the question.

Please check my answer to your earlier question. Dr. Alicia Hamilton can be considered the mother of occupational medicine in the U.S.

amazing. I searched for about twenty min. Never considered a mom.

I apologize for the confusion. It seems that the information provided in my previous response was inaccurate. After conducting thorough research, I couldn't find a specific individual who is widely recognized as the father of occupational medicine in the United States.

Occupational medicine as a field developed gradually over the years through the contributions of various researchers and professionals. However, if you are particularly interested in the origins and significant figures in occupational medicine, I would recommend exploring the history of the field or reaching out to experts or organizations in the field of medicine for more specific information.
