Andrew Clark (1826–1893) moved from being assistant surgeon at Haslar Royal Naval Hospital to become the first curator of the museum at the London Hospital. There he was elected assistant physician before developing the largest London consulting practice of his day.

From 1868 Clark was the personal physician to Prime Minister William Gladstone. Clark’s death in 1893 is often taken as a contributory factor to Gladstone’s decision to retire the next year at the age of 83.
