Abstract
Between World War I and World War II there were numerous negative phenomena in Polish society as far as health and illnesses are concerned. The issues were depicted in detail on the example of Piotrków county. The author emphasized the living conditions, bad hygiene and also lack of awareness and knowledge among the city dwellers concerning this area of life. Basic sanitary norms were ignored in shopping areas, in places where food was produced and even at schools, especially in the country. The roles and activities of county doctors were depicted in this sphere. They followed mostly sanitary conditions of Piotrków district. As representatives of public health care offices they undertook numerous activities in order to improve the situation. They frequently controlled, supported the activity of surgeries and tried to rebuild them. They advised local authorities as far as health matters were concerned. Although their activities were not always accepted by the society the work done by doctors must be emphasized. The office does not exist anymore but at that time it was significant and helped to improve the situation.
