A Doctor's Diary
A Doctor's Diary is told through the eyes of Dr. Dan Norris (John Trent), resident physician in a private hospital. In his search for a cure for spinal meningitis, Norris recklessly runs roughshod over the feelings of his colleagues. The doctor's older, wiser supervisor, Dr. Clem Driscoll (George Bancroft), tries to curb Norris' impatience, pointing out that nothing takes place overnight. Angrily, Norris accuses Driscoll of malpractice and is forced to resign from the clinic -- just when a meningitis epidemic breaks out.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
A Doctor's Diary is an exceptional film rated 10.0/10. It ranks among the finest in its genre and is an absolute must-watch for any film lover.
A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.
A classic from 1937. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
