==Synopsis==
As with most medical dramas of the day, the main conflict was between Dr. Welby's unorthodox way of treating patients as opposed to the strait-laced methods of Dr. Steven Kiley ([[James Brolin]]). The catch with this particular program was that the roles were reversed in that Dr. Kiley was much younger than Dr. Welby. In the similar series ''[[Medical Center (TV series)|Medical Center]]'', it is the older doctor who is more orthodox and the younger who is radical.
