In the first movie of the series, we are introduced to the kindly Dr. Christian (Hersholt), who runs the small clinic in the town of River's End. With the town growing, Dr. Christian petitions the mayor for money to build a new hospital. But the mayor believes the good Doctor is too old-fashioned, and wants to replace the doctor with a more "modern" medicine man, along with commissioning a new highway to be built through the town. When the mayor's young daughter is injured in an accident, Dr. Christian is able to perform extremely delicate surgery without having the correct medical instruments. The town counsil is so impressed with Dr. Christian that they not only allow him to keep his job, but have been convinced to build the new hospital.

| User ReviewJames HThe first of the Dr. Christian series is a good film, nicely acted by Jean Hersholt. Good story, well meaning. The plot is a bit familiar, but it is well enough done. |
| User ReviewBill TPretty schmaltzy tale about a small town doctor going head to heaad with the mayor about building a hospital in the small town he practices in. The Mayor's son has the hots for the nurse, and there's another subplot in there as well. It's just ok, predictably average fare. |
