George Darling (physician)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Darling was born at Stow, near Galashiels, was educated at the university of Edinburgh, and, having made two or three voyages as surgeon in the East India Company's service, settled in London in general practice. At the end of four years he began to practise as a physician, having become a licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians in London. He had a considerable intimacy with artists, David Wilkie, Benjamin Haydon, Thomas Lawrence, and Francis Leggatt Chantrey being both his patients and his friends.[2]
