John Conrad Otto
John Conrad Otto (born near Woodbridge, New Jersey, 15 March 1774; died in Philadelphia, 26 June 1844) was a United States physician.
==Biography==
His father, Bodo Otto, was a physician, and warmly attached to the patriot cause during the American Revolutionary War. He sat in the senate of New Jersey, and served during the war as an officer in the Continental Army. The son graduated from Princeton in 1792, and in medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in 1796. In 1798 he was elected one of the physicians of the Philadelphia Dispensary, and in 1813, on the death of Benjamin Rush, he was chosen to succeed the latter as one of the physicians and clinical lecturer of the Pennsylvania Hospital, which post he held 21 years, and in connection with which he became extensively known throughout the United States.
Otto was physician to the Orphan Asylum for twenty years, and during many years to the Magdalen Asylum. In the cholera epidemic of 1833 he was one of the twelve physicians that were chosen by the public authorities of Philadelphia to adopt sanitary measures and establish and conduct hospitals in the city, and at the organization of the sanitary board he was chosen its president.〔 He was a fellow of the College of Physicians, in which he held the office of censor, and from 1840 until his death that of vice president, and was for many years a member of the American Philosophical Society.
