Clinical Option

A brilliant research scientist at the University of Texas makes a discovery that could change the way medicine is practiced. A State Senator, facing difficulties in his re election campaign, sees political advantage in attacking the Research Center's methods and ethics. An emergency Room physician is faced with an emotional choice when confronted by a dying patient. Vince King, a young medical student, finds himself involved in these conflicts as he tries to work out his complicated love life. Medical ethics, Texas politics, lust, and greed provide a background against which not all the characters get what they want.
