FISHER, M. D., LESLIE C., who is one of the representative physicians and 
surgeons in Clay County, is established in successful general practice at Green 
Cove Springs, the county seat, and is one of the popular and progressive 
citizens of this county.
	Dr. Fisher was born in Cumberland County, North Carolina, May 21, 1884, 
and is a son of the late EMMETT FISHER, who passed his entire life in North 
Carolina, where he was one of the substantial farmers and honored and 
influential citizens of Cumberland County at the time of his death in 1919. Dr. 
Fisher of this review was the first born in a family of seven children.
	Dr. Fisher is indebted to the public schools for his early education, 
and in 1902 he graduated from the high school at Moultrie, Georgia. In 
preparation for his chosen profession he entered the medical department of 
Emory University, one of the leading institutions of that state, and in the 
same he was graduated as a member of the class of 1909. Prior to thus receiving 
his degree of Doctor of Medicine he had served for time as bookkeeper in a 
bank, and had been for two years manager of a turpentine plant in Florida. Dr. 
Fisher initiated the practice of his profession by establishing his residence 
at Green Cove Springs in May, 1911, and here he has built up a large and 
representative general practice that bears evidence alike of his technical 
ability and his personal popularity. He is one of the leading physicians and 
surgeons of Clay County, is affiliated with the Masonic fraternity, and is an 
active member of the Southern Medical Association, the Florida State Medical 
Society and the Clay County Medical Society. The Doctor is most loyal and 
public spirited his civic attitude, and takes deep interest in all the concerns 
the well-being of his home city and county.
