This should be required viewing for ALL doctors . . .on a regular recurring basis. August 7, 2008

Harrowing and Touching

Yes, it's another cancer movie. This one has an interesting twist, though: this time it's about a doctor. Picture your typical Western doctor: all business, no muss, no fuss.

He has no compassion for his patients and even makes jokes of their illnesses. Then karma catches up with him and he is struck like a lightning bolt with the awareness of what it's like to be a patient in his own hospital. You will undoubtedly be amazed at the transformation of this man's surprisingly gentle and caring soul.

Excellent

This is a MUST see for all in the medical field, especially all medical students and physicians. To experience what patients actually feel and go through is truly an eye opener. April 24, 2008

The Doctor

This is a great movie. I am an aspiring minister and I had a fellow Christian recommend that I see this film because it is essential for people who will be working with people in hospitals to understand life as it is seen from a patients eyes. I think it is a must see for every person going into a helping profession or into the health field arena. April 13, 2008

Movie: The Doctor

I highly recommend this movie as it depicts what a lot of us go through as patients that doctors don't realize. I think every doctor should see this movie!!! April 6, 2008
