Samuel van der Hoeden
Samuel van der Hoeden was a dentist and a connection of Fritz Pfeffer.
Samuel van der Hoeven was a dentist. Fritz Pfeffer worked in his practice.[1] When he moved to Zuider Amstellaan in 1941, he rented property at Amstellaan 55. His predecessor was the dental technician J.J. Vos.[2] Van der Hoeden was not a qualified dentist, rather a travelling salesman in orthodontic items and a dental technician. He practised the latter as a self-employed person.[3]
At the first address he worked under the name Tandheelkundige Kliniek voor de Middenstand, or Dental Clinic for the Middle Class. According to the city's dental association Amsterdamsche Tandheelkundige Vereeniging, Van der Hoeden was unauthorised to practise dentistry. On 23 February 1940 Amsterdam's Chief of Police placed him on a list of dental technicians who should be fined for unauthorised activities. On 8 April 1941 the police issued him a summons to close his practice within a month. Van der Hoeden thought that did not give him enough time to wind up the business.[4] Given that he was still working with Pfeffer eighteen months later, he had apparently disregarded the summons.
In June 1943, Van der Hoeden advertised his Tandheelkundig Instituut, or Dental Institute, several times in the Joodsche Weekblad.[5]
