Handlung
Dr. John Becker, ein hervorragender Arzt mit einer Praxis in der Bronx in New York, hat Probleme mit seinen Mitmenschen. Ständig nörgelt und schimpft er über Patienten, Kollegen und Freunde. Aber eigentlich hat er ein Herz aus Gold und würde für Menschen die ihn brauchen Meilen weit gehen um ihnen zu helfen. An jedem Tag geht John in ein kleines Cafe in der Nähe seiner Praxis und trifft dort Barkeeperin Reggie und den blinden aber klugen Zeitungsverkäufer Jake, die beide genau wissen, wie sie ihn nehmen müssen.
In der Praxis macht ihm Aushilfe Linda das Leben nicht gerade leichter, doch die „gute Seele“ der Praxis Margret greift hier gelegentlich ein.
