When she was growing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man. No one knows Dr. Barrys real name, her birth date, or her familys background. Some records show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at theUniversity of Edinburgh.James Barrys classmates made fun of her because she didnt have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At het age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later, she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the army physical examination. For the next 45 years, Dr James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Everyone admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. (78) At that time. England had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was soon known as the best doctor and surgeon in the governors daughter, and later she became the governors personal doctor.
