Big Island Docs: Today’s Marcus Welbys
“Marcus Welby, M.D.” aired from 1969-76. Dr. Welby was the private small-practice doctor who took care of patients with straightforward honesty and dedicated compassion. He made house calls, knew his patients on a first-name basis and handled a range of conditions.
His effectiveness had as much to do with his professional expertise as his personalized connection to his patients.
