The Forgotten Pioneering Jewish – Polish Rehabilitation Physicians, Working at the Jewish Hospital in Warsaw (Szpital Starozakonnych, Szpital Żydowski „Czyste”): Dr Ida Iza Asz and Dr Julian Rotstadt

Dr Julian Rotstadt and Dr Ida Iza Asz are forgotten pioneering Jewish-Polish neuro-rehabilitation physicians who worked at the Jewish Hospital in Warsaw (Szpital Starozakonnych na Czystem). The Rehabilitation Department was equipped with modern facilities, and skilled personnel cared for those who needed their expertise from the various departments of the hospital. Their pioneering work, ahead of its time, was run by these two Jewish neurologists. Both of them perished in the Holocaust.
