[Famous physicians from the Simonović family].
The prominent Simonović family, from its earliest ancestors known for seeking and promoting education and holding key positions in the society, is known for several remarkable intellectuals, cultural and public workers, as well as physicians. They were all exceptional in their own way, contributing to national education and their professions, and not by accident. This paper presents personal lives and professional careers of three brothers, physicians from the Simonović family: Dr. Radivoj Simonović, a famous physician from Sombor who was also a historian, ethnographer, mountaineer, geomorphologist, photoamateur and a medical educator, Dr. Milan Simonović, for many years beloved and well-known physician in Petrovaradin, and Dr. Svetislav Simonović, esteemed physician in Belgrade who was the personal physician to King Petar Karadordević. Apart from their family heritage, their scientific and professional achievements are certainly a result of their talents, training and discipline.
