life and work

He was the son of the doctor Friedrich Gottlieb Heinrich Fielitz the Younger . After going to school in Luckau and Görlitz , he studied at the universities in Leipzig and Halle , where he received his doctorate in 1819 .

Fielitz had already practiced as a doctor when he subsequently studied homeopathy with its founder, Samuel Hahnemann . He then practiced it from around 1830, first in Lauban , later in Langensalza and finally in Braunschweig , where he and his family had moved in July 1839 on the initiative of Georg Heinrich August Mühlenbein (1764–1845) in order to save the lives of Carl Georg Christian Hartlaub's (1795–1839) vacant position to be filled. Among other things, he worked on site as an assistant to Mühlenbein.
