Critiques

(2.5 stars)

Lori K

Some stories didn't have much to do with doctors. Some revolved around sentiment & love. From the title I expected doctors & medicine to be the focus of every story. The 2 chapters by Suprata were difficult to fully follow.

CARRY ON, DOCTOR

A delightful collection of tales from the fertile mind of ACD. Most of the readers were good.
