Arthur Brooke Faulkner
Sir Arthur Brooke Faulkner, M.D. (1779–1845) was an Irish physician to the forces, and author.
==Life==
He was the youngest son of Hugh Faulkner of Castletown, co. Carlow, his mother having been a Cole of the family of Enniskillen. He entered Trinity College, Dublin, in 1795, and in due course graduated B.A., having taken lectures on chemistry and anatomy together with dissections in his curriculum. He then entered as a medical student at Edinburgh University, graduating M.D. in 1803. His next two years were spent in London in attendance at the London Hospital, the Westminster Hospital, and the Surrey Dispensary. In 1805 he was incorporated B.A. of Catharine Hall, Cambridge, by virtue of his Dublin degree, and M.A. the same year; his Cambridge M.A. degree served to procure him the ''ad eundem'' degree of Dublin, and finally he used his M.A. degree of Dublin to get incorporated M.B. of Pembroke College, Oxford, on 11 July 1806, and M.D. the day after.
In 1807 he became a candidate of the College of Physicians of London, and was elected fellow in 1808. He was appointed physician to the forces and served on the staff in Spain, Holland, Sicily, and Malta. He was at Malta when the plague was introduced there in 1813 (after an interval of 140 years) by a vessel from Alexandria; he distinguished himself by tracing the spread of the disease, by his vigorous advocacy of the doctrine of contagion, and by directing the quarantine procedure whereby the disease was kept within bounds. Returning to England he was knighted in February 1815 and appointed physician to the Duke of Sussex.
Having retired from the service in 1815, he settled as a physician at Cheltenham, and died at his residence at Evington, near Cheltenham, 23 May 1845, aged 66. In 1810 he married a daughter of Mr. Donald M'Leod.
