Best Answer

He may or may not have been a doctor, but there is no denying he was a hero during the Holocaust era. Felix Kersten was a massage therapist; he became the personal masseuse of Nazi Heinrich Himmler and won Himmler's trust. But Kersten was a courageous and ethical person who held no animosity against Jews: he is credited by many sources as having rescued, or contributed to the rescue of as many as 60,000 of them, including about 3,000 Jews from Finland.
