Hundred’s of Jewish prisoners were poisoned by him with various injections directly into the heart, including petrol, water, phenol and poison, to induce a quicker death. He is reported to have removed organs from prisoners without anesthesia. According to a former camp inmate, an 18-year-old Jewish man came to the clinic with a foot inflammation. He was asked by Heim why he was so fit. He replied that he had been a football player and swimmer. Instead of treating the prisoner’s foot, Heim placed him under anesthesia, cut him open, took apart one kidney, removed the second and castrated him. The man was decapitated and Heim boiled the flesh off the skull for use as a paperweight and display. From February 1942, Heim served in the 6th SS Mountain Division Nord 
in northern Finland, under SS Obergruppenführer, Karl Maria Demelhuber, 
especially in Oulu’s hospitals as an SS doctor. In May 1945, the division unit’s survivors surrendered to the Americans in Austria. Heim’s service continued until at least October 1942.
