Frank Andre

Francis Xavier "Frank" Macek Andre (July 20, 1888 – January 16, 1959) was a purported faith healer, known as "The goat doctor of the Sierras." Born in Vienna, Austria, Andre was orphaned at the age of six when his parents died in Czechoslovakia. He came to California as a young man in 1911 after his adoption by Ernest Frank Andre (1865-1961) and Anna Elizabeth Raker Andre (1865-1948). "I don't claim to cure anyone," Andre said, "I tell those who need medical treatment to see a doctor. My treatment is mostly a form of chiropractic adjust." His fee was the same to all — a flat $3.
