Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman background

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman

A female doctor navigates the challenges and excitement of practicing medicine in a small Wild West town.

Michaela Quinn, a pioneering doctor from Boston, defies societal norms by pursuing a career in medicine. After her father's passing, she relocates to Colorado Springs, where she faces skepticism from the local community. Despite the challenges, Mike's determination to prove herself as a doctor is matched by her growing bond with Byron Sully, a rugged mountain man, and her unexpected responsibility to care for three orphaned children.
