In 1901 he obtained his medical doctorate from the University of Breslau, and following graduation became an assistant to surgeon Carl Garré (1857-1928) at the University of Königsberg. Afterwards he returned to Breslau as an assistant to dermatologist Albert Neisser (1855-1916), under whose direction he participated on a medical research mission to Java (1907). In 1922 he obtained his habilitation for dermatology and radiation therapy in Berlin.
