Bachelor Doctor

by Elizabeth Seifert

Young Dr. Grady McCord was a born physician, brilliant, insightful, compassionate to those in need. But something in his make-up made him lash out at everything others thought sacred--his distinguished family, the big city hospital at which he worked, and above all the institution of marriage.

His parents could do nothing with him. Nor could his despairing medical superiors. How foolish for an inexperienced girl like lovely Taylor Falk to risk heartbreak by trying to succeed where so many before her had failed.

About the author

Ms. Seifert wrote more than 80 novels during her lifetime.

From an early age she wanted to study medicine but was thwarted by poor health and family disapproval. She did manage to study physiology and anatomy and after graduating from Washington University, she became a clinical secretary in a hospital. During the years that followed, she grew to understand something of the lives, emotions and problems of the people that made up the medical profession. With this knowledge, she began to write.

Sometimes published in German and Spanish as Elisabeth Seifert.
