Medic - Dr. Impossible (1/3)

The episode of Medic takes us back in history to explore the use of cocaine as an anesthetic. The doctors who discovered this medicinal use of cocaine were very enthusiastic about its possible use in surgery but knew nothing of its addictive potential. Here we see the consequences they endured.

Richard Boone, appearing as Dr. Konrad Styner, is your host.

I'm not a doctor. I don't even play one on TV... but it's really great to have such a big fan of Medic :) I will do my best to keep you informed of future uploads.

I used to watch this show when I was a kid. I remember something that for some reason is omitted. At the show's opening you see a crest with an eagle, lion, and a hand. The announcer used to say something like, "A doctor must have the eye of an eagle, the heart of a lion, and the hand of a woman." Wonder why we don't hear it here.

That's the wonderful character actor Arthur Space.

A pretty young Richard Boone. Yes he did a great job. You're welcome.

Thanks a bundle for posting this.

Medic, in my opinion, set the standard for the medical dramas that followed it.

And Richard Boone was simply OUTSTANDING.
