[Examples of physician-patient relations, Perche-government of Quebec: debts for medical expenses, 1690-1740-1770].
This paper is a comparative study of debts for medical services among the populations of Perche (Low-Normandy, France) and Quebec during the 1690s, 1740s and 1770s, as presented in metropolitan-colonial reports. This socioeconomic study presents the social and geographic characteristics of patients who needed medical services, the debts incurred, the popularity of practitioners, and the level of medicalization in these two areas.
