Hoffmann, Gertrude (1917–?)

Gertrude Hofmann studied medicine in Graz and applied for membership in the Nazi party in 1938. As a junior physician, she worked in several hospitals in the Graz region. At Kainbach, Hoffmann is said to have killed at least one patient by administering a lethal injection. After the war, her case was investigated, and she denied all wrong-doing. Hofmann was then released without charge.
