Ernie Spiegelglass gets high, gets involved, and is about to complete his residency ... he hopes.
Brash, brilliant, and often profane, Ernie (alias Doc Sparrowgrass) enters the world of a San Francisco clinic and turns the entire place upside down with his riotous romances and his own unique style-which includes treating patients like people. The medical establishment is turned off to his idea of medicine-from the heart, not by the book-but Ernie can't turn his back on anyone who comes to him for help, even if it means jeopardizing his career.
Dr. Grass is a funny, honest, poignant book about a refugee from the 1960's growing up and not selling out in the 1970's.
