He attended the secondary school Borgerdydskolen (The School of Civic Virtue) in Copenhagen, and later studied medicine.[7] He was a surgeon at Garrison Hospital in Copenhagen in 1915-17.[7][9] He later served as a physician.[7] He was forced to flee Denmark during the Nazi occupation of Denmark due to his being Jewish, and went to Sweden where he worked at Saint Göran Hospital.[7] [10]
