Life

Siegfried Johannes Reimer was a son of the Greifswald- born Berlin publisher Georg Andreas Reimer and his wife Wilhelmine Charlotte Susanne Philippine Reinhardt (1784–1864). After attending the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Gymnasium , he initially studied philosophy and natural sciences, then exclusively medicine in Bonn and Berlin, where he received his doctorate in 1837. Reimer gained practical experience in Halle , Vienna and Paris until 1841 .

When he returned to Berlin, he became a doctor at the newly founded Elisabeth Hospital , a city doctor for the poor and a doctor for prisoners in prison, and a doctor at the Bethesda infirmary. He was the assistant to Karl Wilhelm Mayer in the gynecological poor practice. In 1845 he stayed in Italy because of a lung disease.

In the political movement of 1848/49 he took a "lively part" (ADB). For years he was on the board of the men's gymnastics club and at times teacher of anatomy and physiology at the military Central Gymnastics Institute .

Siegfried Johannes Reimer died six months after his marriage to Elisabeth Jonas after a brief, severe illness.

The archive for pathological anatomy and physiology , founded by the then little-known physicians Rudolf Virchow and Benno Reinhardt , found a publisher through Siegfried Johannes' mediation through his brother Georg Ernst Reimer .
