Life

Gawlik was the son of the lawyer and member of the Center Alfons Gawlik and his wife Hedwig, geb. Pohl. He grew up in Ratibor and began before the Second World War, the study of medicine at the Silesian Friedrich Wilhelms University in Breslau . He completed his studies, which had been interrupted by war missions, with the state examination in 1944 and became a regimental doctor in a hospital. After the Battle of Stalingrad , he was taken prisoner by the Soviets . Before he surrendered, he began to learn Russian. He was cured of a severe typhus disease in 1947 by the homeopathic doctor Hartmut Oehmisch. The years of privation as a prisoner of war in the Soviet Union shaped him deeply.

Since after the war his medical certificates were lost, he repeated after his return from captivity, the state examination in human medicine at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich and received his doctorate in 1950 with the thesis The Callusbestrahlung with finger fractures . As an assistant doctor he worked in clinics in Munich , in the hospital in Naila and at the homeopathic hospital in Munich-Höllriegelskreuth. Since 1955 Gawlik was a resident specialist for general medicine with the additional designation homeopathy and naturopathic treatment in Bad Tölz .

From 1969 to 1976 he was first chairman of the German Central Association of Homeopathic Doctors (DZVhÄ) and founder and from 1976 to 1990 chairman of the working group of homeopathic doctors in the German Central Association of Doctors for Naturopathic Treatment (ZÄN). From 1978 to 1990 he was a member of the homeopathic pharmacopoeia commission in the former Federal Health Office (BGA) in Berlin and from 1980 to 1990 chairman of the drug commission D for the preparation and approval of homeopathic medicines in the former BGA.
