Randa Haines has directed The Doctor with exquisite tact, supported by an exceptional cast. [Full review in Spanish]

The Doctor is a shrewd and serious piece of work.

[Christine Lahti] is capable of bringing great depth to any part. But how do you plumb a petri dish?

The Doctor is that rare specimen--a big studio movie that treats the audience (and its own characters) with intelligence and respect. It cuts close to the bone.

...a relatively solid yet erratically-paced little drama.
