A well-known textbook on surgery and medicine, mainly directed to students. Johann Juncker (1679 to 1759 in Halle) was a German physician and chemist. Juncker was a leader in the Pietist reform movement as it applied to medicine. He directed the Francke Foundations and initiated approaches to medical practice, charitable treatment, and education at the University of Halle that influenced others internationally. He was a staunch proponent of Georg Ernst Stahl and helped to more clearly present Stahl's phlogiston theory of combustion.
In Halle Juncker was director of the orphanage and its associated medical clinic, Juncker made the practice of volunteering at the clinic (previously an option for medical students) required as part of the medical curriculum. The addition of this Collegium clinicum or practical training to the curriculum led to the expansion of both the medical program and the clinic. Under Juncker's direction, the clinic provided free medical care to thousands of poor patients each year. As a result of Juncker's approach, Halle became an "internationally renowned centre of practical training". Juncker's clinic at Halle has been described as "a second influential source of clinical teaching". It was preceded only by Herman Boerhaave's clinic, which was established in 1714, three years earlier. Although other institutions were slow to model themselves on it, Juncker's work at Halle inspired the establishment of clinics at Berlin, Göttingen, Jena, and Erfurt.
