“What do I care about women and their misfortunes? I was created to dissect, extract, cut, sew up. To treat real diseases, and not to hold someone’s hand”—with this attitude, intern Jeanne Atwood arrives at the “women’s” Department 77. She was the best student on the course and planned to take a position as a surgeon in a prestigious hospital, but... First, she will have to undergo a six-month internship in the department of Franz Karma. This doctor is guided by the principle “The doctor is the one whom the patient takes by the hand,” and the arrogance of the new intern is his not too impressive. They make an agreement: Jeanne must stay in the “women’s” section for a week. She will follow him like a shadow for a week to learn to listen and respect her patients. And on the eighth day he will decide whether to continue the internship or transfer to another hospital.
