L&T: Why did Anne send for the apothecary? Written by MarianneR (10/13/2008 3:39 a.m.)

In ch.7 we read:

His collar-bone was found to be dislocated, and such injury received in the back, as roused the most alarming ideas...Anne had every thing to do at once: the apothecary to send for...

I wonder why she didn´t send for the doctor (as she did in Lyme). Didn´t they have any doctor in the vicinity or was it rather the task of an apothecary to replace dislocated limbs?
