Masayoshi Tsuruda, known as Jumbo, returns to a small port city due to a loan given to the late director of the Baba Clinic. Soon, Masayoshi Tsuruda becomes the director at Baba Clinic. Nurse Asuka Baba works at the clinic. She is also the only child of the ex-director. Asuka is inexperienced with her job, but passionate and tender.

Started watching after I od'ed on DTR. X on Crunchy_till they wanted $$$ thanks to Damaholics I'm hooked again. An interesting series focused on the divide of the capitalistic & good ole boy HC systems in Japan (and anywhere else)vs a community (town doctor)HC. The actors are good, each episode focuses on a specific patient issue (very realistic issues (diabetes, cancer, abuse, mental issues etc.)accompanied with a swirling heavy backstory of lustful admin & his sirene complicit in taking down his nemesis town DTR & taking over the community clinic home of a naive yet caring nurse. Not real complicated stories, yet the layering of rural community HC, Japanese culture and non-traditional Dtr methods make this an interesting series. Would I re-watch? possibly a couple episodes - If you liked Dtr X - JDrama; give this a try, you will be entertained and YET saddened that HC systems globally are merely corporations focused on bottomline & not appropriate care of society.
