The Doctor is Out [MEDICAL SERIES #3]

S O O N

If Mike Samuel Cuevas is given a chance to correlate his life with three words, it would be "bruises", "rejection", and "failure". Bruises for all the marks he had whenever his father hurt him physically for being such a disgrace to the family. Rejection for all the times he was left by all the women he genuinely loved. Failure for being the lowest in class, for being academically weak, for having no skills to showcase, and for leaving his responsibilities while studying in Med School.

As he left the city, he met the life he was yearning for in the province of Siargao: a solemn life where he is well-appreciated and where his mind is in peace. In this place, he found a father figure in the persona of Dr. Barcelon, a doctor to the barrio in one of the municipality of Siargao. Most of all, he found a great love in the persona of Glamour Montanilla, a hardworking nurse of the said municipality.

Will he finally stand for himself and bring out his courage that was chained behind the bars and claimed that the doctor is out? Or will he just let those chains tie him up again into the abyss and claimed that the doctor is in?
