When the young registrar leaves his post in the hospital for a career in General Practice, he has a lot to learn.

He also has to cope with rejection from the beautiful Sylvia who has no desire to be a GP's wife. As he gets to grips with the demands of his new position, he grows in confidence and acquires a deeper knowledge and understanding of his profession, his patients and himself. However, the young doctor's private life is troubled by two beautiful women - Sylvia, who has already rejected him once and Betty Hume who is determined to win from him the love she desires. This is the first of a series of five novels about the eventful life of a young GP. "REVIEW: 'An amusing lively tale of a young doctor's first year in general practice' (Methodist Recorder)
