In 1808 he obtained his medical doctorate in Paris with the thesis "Dissertation sur une maladie de la peau désignée sous le nom de prurigo". Following graduation he worked as a military physician in Italy and then in Spain.[1] Under the Bourbon Restoration he became a professor of hygiene and physiology at the military hospital of instruction in Lille and in around 1840 was appointed professor and chief physician at Val-de-Grâce.[2][3]
In 1803 he became a member of the Société anatomique de Paris, and from April 1825 was an adjoint-correspondent to the Académie Nationale de Médecine.[2]
