List of Nazi doctors

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doctors' trial, Nuremberg, 1946–1947

The following is a list of notable medical doctors in Nazi Germany. This list is primarily split up into those who performed euthanasia through the Aktion T4 campaign, to those who primarily performed experiments on Holocaust victims. While a majority consists of members of the Nazi Party, others who could not become members contributed in notable ways. After the war, the German Medical Association blamed Nazi atrocities on a small group of 350 criminal doctors.[1][2][3] During the Doctors' trial, the defense argued that there was no international law to distinguish between legal and illegal human experimentation,[4] which led to the creation of the Nuremberg Code (1947). Some doctors attempted to change names to escape capture and trial, such as Werner Heyde[5] and Robert Ley,[6] Other doctors, such as Walter Schreiber, were covertly moved to the United States during "Operation Paperclip" in 1951.

  • Note: Some of those listed here were acquitted of the more serious charges, but were still found guilty for other crimes.

Background

[edit]

When the Nazi government came to power, they purged Germany of its 6,000 to 7,000 Jewish doctors.[7] Non-Jewish physicians were early recruits to the Nazi Party, due both to social and economic circumstances and to widespread eugenic and Social Darwinist ideas in early-20th-century medicine.[8] By 1942, more than half of all German physicians had become Nazi Party members.[9][10][11] In comparison, only about 10% of the general population became Nazi Party members by 1945.[12] In addition, over 7% of German doctors became members of the Nazi SS, compared to less than 1% of the general population.[13] While most of these doctors were physicians, some held doctorates (PhDs) in biology, anthropology, or related fields. Doctors who were working for the state, and not for their patients, using a Mendelian type of logic chart, saw extermination of their patients as the correct solution to the problem of mental illness and the genetically defective.[14][15][16][17] "The participation in the ‘betrayal of Hippocrates’ had a broad basis within the German medical profession. Without the doctors' active help, the Holocaust could not have happened," wrote E Ernst in the International Journal of Epidemiology.[18] Killing and experimentation[19] became medical procedures as they were performed by licensed doctors. A doctor was present at all the mass killings for legal reasons.[20]

Academics

[edit]
Doctor Birth Death Short summary
Kurt Albrecht December 31, 1894 May 7, 1945 Albrecht was a professor at the University of Berlin, and Karl-Ferdinands-Universität in Prague.
Eugen Fischer July 5, 1874 July 9, 1967 Fischer developed the physiological specifications such as skull dimensions which were apparently used to determine racial origins and he also developed the so-called Fischer–Saller scale for hair colour. He and the members of his team experimented on Gypsies and African-Germans, drawing their blood and measuring their skulls (see Craniometry) to attempt to scientifically validate his theories.
Wilhelm Frick March 12, 1877 October 16, 1946 He achieved a doctorate of law and began working for the police in 1903. Later became a politician of the Nazi Party, joining September 1, 1925. He was a contributing creator and writer of the Nuremberg Laws . He was tried and executed after the war.[37]
Rudolf Hippius June 9, 1905 October 23, 1945 Hippius is best known for his work in "racial psychology" carried out under the auspices of the Nazi regime, and specifically his study of the "suitability" of people of mixed German and Slavonic descent.
Alfred Ploetz August 22, 1860 March 20, 1940 Ploetz was a eugenicist known for coining the term racial hygiene (Rassenhygiene), a form of eugenics, and for promoting the concept in Germany.
Robert Ritter May 14, 1901 April 15, 1951 Ritter was appointed head of the Racial Hygiene and Demographic Biology Research Unit of Nazi Germany's Criminal Police. He was the "architect of the experiments, the Roma and Sinti were subjected to." His pseudo-scientific "research" in classifying these populations of Germany aided the Nazi government in their systematic persecution toward a goal of "racial purity".
Ernst Rüdin April 19, 1874 October 22, 1952 While Rüdin has been credited as a pioneer of psychiatric inheritance studies, he also argued for, designed, justified and funded the mass sterilization and clinical killing of adults and children.[38]
Wilhelm Stuckart 16 November 1902 15 November 1953 He achieved a doctorate of law in 1930. He worked as a lawyer for the Nazi Party and helped to create and write the Nuremberg Laws.
Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer July 16, 1896 August 8, 1969 Verschuer was a Nazi-affiliated eugenicist with an interest in racial hygiene. He was an advocate of compulsory sterilization programs in the first half of the 20th century.[39][40]

He was found guilty of participating in the murder and mistreatment of prisoners at the Neuengamme concentration camp, and was sentenced to death by hanging on May 3, 1946.
Fritz Klein November 24, 1888 December 13, 1945 From December 15, 1943, to January 1945, Klein worked at Auschwitz, Birkenau, Neuengamme, and finally Bergen-Belsen as a camp doctor. During his trial, Anita Lasker testified that Klein took part in selections for the gas chamber.[43] Klein was found guilty and was executed by hanging on December 13, 1945.
Franz Lucas September 15, 1911 December 7, 1994 Franz Lucas worked at Theresienstadt, Mauthausen, Stutthof, and Ravensbrück from mid-December 1943 to late summer 1944.

Non Nazis

[edit]

While the following people were never members of the Nazi Party, their names are included here as they are known to have contributed or are mentioned in a notable way.

Doctor Birth Death Short summary
Hans Asperger February 18, 1906 October 21, 1980 Asperger's alleged Nazi involvement has been hotly debated as his knowledge and involvement remains unknown.

  1. ^ These are initial sentences, many of which were later commuted.
  2. ^ American intervention possibly saved Blome from the gallows in exchange for information about biological warfare, nerve gas, and providing advice on to the American chemical and biological weapons programs.[32]
  3. ^ a b c Exact date unknown
  4. ^ Gutzeit was involved in the coordination of pseudo-medical infection tests with hepatitis.
  5. ^ Handloser held the newly established position of Chief of Wehrmacht Medical Services in the Wehrmacht High Command (OKW). This made him primarily responsible for the entire medical service of the Wehrmacht and consequently also for all medical crimes that were committed within the framework of the Wehrmacht medical service, particularly against prisoners of war.
  6. ^ Hippke was arrested, but later was released after it was found he was only the source behind the idea for deadly "freezing experiments" on humans.
  7. ^ Kaschub died before charges could be brought up against him.
  8. ^ The courts found that Poppendick was aware of almost all the experiments that had been carried out on prisoners in various concentration camps, but saw no criminal liability. He was ultimately sentenced to 10 years for being a member of the SS.
  9. ^ Rascher never stood trial, he was executed under direct orders from Heinrich Himmler for deception
  10. ^ Reiter was a "quality control" officer who helped design and implement a process where internees were inoculated with an experimental typhus vaccine. He later assisted the Allies with his knowledge of germ warfare.
  11. ^ Rostock was charged with complicity in several series of human experiments on concentration camp prisoners due to his high position.
  12. ^ Witteler was involved in the selection of prisoners who were deliberately infected during Claus Schilling 's malaria experiments.
  13. ^ Wirths was involved in ordering medical experimentation, particularly in gynecological and typhus-related experimental tests.
  14. ^ This only covers what the person did or allegedly did under the Nazi regime.
