The Black Doctor of the Pines
By Linda Tancs
Dr. James Still was a renowned herbalist and homeopathic healer often called “The Black Doctor of the Pines.” Born to former slaves, he was mostly self educated and entered into medical practice as a result of an interest in medical botany. One of the wealthiest men in Burlington County, New Jersey, he built an office in Medford as well as a home. The office building remains today and is the centerpiece of the Dr. James Still Historic Office Site and Education Center. Guided tours are available by appointment. There is also a nature trail on the property that is open from dawn to dusk.
