As a determined woman, she taught at the school and gave music lessons to earn money for her study. In 1849, after her graduation from medical school, she decided to continue her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon, but a serious eye infection forced her to give up the idea. After returning to the United States, she realized that it was difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another female doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children.
