OtherInfo | According to an entry in the Royal College of Physician's annals, Robinson did not have formal training at any academy or institution and thus was seen as 'deficient' for a time as a candidate. However, at the time of his death, he was a senior fellow of the College. Unfortunately, not much else is known about his practice or his personal life. He was inactive in the Royal Society after his election. |
