This paper describes the forty years of outpatient healthcare development and changes in the sanitary conditions in Slavonski Brod. From the end of World War I to 1935 the position of the city's physician was held by doctor Emanuel Kovačić. He was succeeded by doctor Milenko Kajganović, who held the position until the end of World War II, when the position of the city's physician was cancelled. This entire period was characterized by the struggles with outbreaks of various diseases: from the Spanish flu, spotted typhus, malaria, tuberculosis, infectious intestinal diseases (salmonellosis and dysentery), to infectious childhood diseases, diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and others. The development of certain institutions, as well as significant personnel changes during this period are also described. The article was written using all available published literature, and also numerous documents preserved at the State Archives in Slavonski Brod.
