Charles Cullis

Charles Cullis (7 March 1833 - 18 June 1892) was an Episcopalian physician based in Boston, Massachusetts.

He suffered from ill health, and although this meant that he was sometimes not able to attend school, he studied medicine at home and graduated from the University of Vermont at age 24.

[1] It was common practice at the time to turn away incurable cases such as tuberculosis from hospitals,[2] so Cullis opened four homes between 1864 and 1869 to house tuberculosis patients, he also started homes for orphans, caregivers, and cancer patients.

[2] Cullis was influenced by Dorothea Trudel's healing ministry.

[5] He was a leading figure in the faith cure movement along with other preachers such as William E. Boardman and Albert B.
